Teaser from Initiation (Changels) #teasertuesday

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along!

One of the books that I am reading right now is Initiation (Changels), Part One of Book One, Serendipity, by Peter King. It is Young Adult fiction; Amazon description at the end of this post.

So, without further ado, here is a teaser from where I am currently reading:

On the other hand it was a risk because we had been betrayed by someone we knew. If it was one of them I’d have to escape.
