OBEY: Second Dawn Book II
The ‘Alien Huntress’ is back … and now she’s on the run.
After learning the truth about the hybrid aliens and their assimilation into the human population, Dillon Shaw’s next mission is to find the people responsible. In order to do that, she’ll have to face off against the NIA—the covert agency where she served for 19 years. Only now, they’ve framed her for a political assassination and made her a wanted fugitive. Falsely accused and the target of a nationwide manhunt, Dillon retreats underground, dodging shady bounty hunters, primal hybrids and a covert assassin from her past.
With her former squad under surveillance and no backup, Dillon is forced to align with the anti-government resistance group, the Sojourners. They’ve discovered a classified file exposing the NIA’s connection to the ‘O.B.E.Y. Protocol’—human experimentation using alien DNA.
However, Dillon soon learns that the price on her head means she can’t afford to trust anyone—not even her allies. With her enemies closing in, a path to redemption won’t be easy.
But when it comes to Dillon Shaw … nothing ever is.

This was such a great read.
As soon as I read the last page of Second Dawn (Larey's first book), I immediately went back to my library and pulled up the next book in Larey's addictive sci-fi series.
The second book in the series picks up immediately after the first book ended with Dillon jumping off of a moving train to escape from a car full of alien hybrids and a trained assassin who has returned from Dillon's past. Yes, there was a train full of aliens that were escaping into the Outskirts. Dillon wakes up to find herself held a prisoner in some seedy NIA dungeon, she realizes what is about to happen and readies herself against the torture she knows is coming. The same torture she's watched her own group/government do in the past. The first words by her tormentor, Dr. Kline, NIA's expert in extracting information echo through her ears. Her resolve to protect the people who helped her escape grows with the more pain and receives.
It's from here forward where everything you thought you knew about the characters you were introduced to is probably wrong and anything you thought was going to happen changes on you. The plot of the book gets turned upside down and tossed out of a moving car. (Kind of like how Dillon escaped the train...) By the end of the first chapter, everything I thought i knew was wrong, and everything I expected to happen was no longer going to happen. I looked up from the book at this point and wondered how it was all going to play out now.
