JOIN THE TEAM. SAVE THE WORLD. Twin geniuses Jacob and Kira are recruited to take part in a high-tech mission to protect the planet ... but will their dreams of adventure come true, or is the threat too great to handle?
'A fun, action-packed thriller with a brother-sister duo that I really loved.' - David Owen, author of the Alex Neptune series
Twin geniuses, Jacob and Kira, have their lives in Uganda turned upside down when they discover someone has been watching their every move in the hopes to enlist them in a top-secret agency called Transcendent.
The twins are sent to London, and must take part in three trials, each more difficult than the last, to be accepted into Transcendent.
If they are successful, they will be launched into space to complete a high-stakes mission to fight the greatest threat the world has ever seen.
Only, the twins soon realise they have more to contend with than they bargained for ... is there a more sinister reason they have been chosen?
Two kids, one top-secret agency and an epic mission to save the world.

High octane, high emotion, occasionally terrifying and utterly riveting...the plot of Transcendent is crammed with action and cool technological gadgets and, to pack it all in, the pace is fast' * ReadingZone *
A cracking debut novel from Patrick Gallagher...the story races along at break-neck speed, diving through one plot twist after another. I turned the last page with a disappointed 'no!' as I longed for more and I'll be eagerly awaiting the sequel * Books For Topics *
A fresh look at the concept of 'Otherness' from a sci-fi perspective. Amid the battle for minds that is central to the ever-twisting plot of Transcendent, the idea that rather than accepting responsibility we bury our heads in fantasy and blame our problems on unknown Others resonates loudest * The Irish Examiner *
