Summary
The curse of the NUM8ERS continues in Rachel Ward's CHA0T1C, earth-shattering sequel!Adam has more than inherited his mother's curse: When he looks in someone's eyes, he not only sees the date of their death...he feels the searing, shocking pain of it. Since Jem died, Adam has lived by the sea with his great-grandmother, Val. But when rising tides flood the coast, they return to London. The city is an alien, exciting, frightening place. Most disturbing of all, Adam can't help but clock how many people's numbers are in January 2027; how many are on New Year's Day. What chaos awaits the world? Can he and Sarah stop a catastrophe? Or are they, too, counted among the "twenty-sevens"?

Excerpts
From Numbers: The ChaosHis number's burning into me. It's different, odd. He only has three months to go. 12062026. I'm getting the flash of a blade, the hot metallic smell of blood. I feel sick. I can't move-his number, his death, has me in its grip. I shut my eyes to try and get it out of my head, break the spell. I open them again the split second before his knuckles hit my face.
