Twintuition: Double Cross

"Identical twins Caitlyn and Cassie Waters are excited about their class’s special field trip to San Antonio and the chance to show their new friends the colorful sights of their old stomping grounds, like the River Walk and El Mercado. But their ability to see glimpses of the future is making them a little anxious about going home again. Now their grandmother is certain that their visions might mean danger, and their mom and aunt are whispering on the phone. The girls know that something big is going on with their family, but Caitlyn and Cassie can’t figure out what. As the girls reach San Antonio, trouble finds them as quickly as a vision. And when one of their friends disappears, it’s up to the girls to use their Sight and street smarts to save the day. But while trying to use their visions to save their friend, they begin to see things they didn’t expect—there’s a man in captivity who looks exactly like their father’s pictures. Could he really be alive? And can they use the clues they see to save him before it’s too late?"

Twintuition: Double Dare

"IDENTICAL TWINS CASSIE AND CAITLYN Waters may be able to see into the future, but they never anticipated how much their lives would change on their twelfth birthday. Their visions are getting stronger, their social studies teacher suspects they have special powers, and the grandmother they just found out about is in town to teach them how to better control what they foresee. While the girls devote their afternoons to strengthening their Sight, their days are spent competing in a class-wide game of Truth or Dare. But as the game goes on, the ideas get wilder and crazier . . . and even a little dangerous, too. When a vision shows the girls’ friend getting hurt, Cassie and Caitlyn know that they’re the only ones who can prevent it. They need to figure out what will happen before it’s too late, but with their teacher waiting to catch them midvision, they’re not sure they can risk looking into the future again. Can Cassie and Caitlyn dare to put the pieces together in time? Or will helping their friend mean that the truth will come out?"

And their Sight is only getting stronger as their twelfth birthday nears! But even with this new gift, neither girl could have predicted what the mysterious package they received would contain—a connection to the father they know nothing about and the grandmother they never knew they had. Why hasn’t their mom told them anything about their dad? What reason could she have for keeping the girls away from his side of the family? And does it have anything to do with the Sight? As the twins struggle to discover more about their own history, they distract themselves by planning their birthday party. Their visions of the big event promise a lot of fun ahead—along with a big fiasco. Cassie and Caitlyn must work together to keep everything running smoothly so their birthday can stay on track!"
