They tell people they are new and that the baby is Risa and Connor’s. The baby offers a perfect disguise when all three kids get onto a school bus. On their journey, Connor insists on picking up a “storked” baby, a baby left on someone’s doorstep. In the commotion, Risa escapes and Connor kidnaps Lev, much to Lev’s annoyance. Connor runs away from home and from the cops, making a mad dash across a highway, causing a terrible accident. While Lev is prepared for the process, Connor and Risa are not. Lev is a tithe, a child given to the unwinding process as a religious sacrifice. Lev, on the other hand, has prepared for this moment all his life. For Connor and Risa, the idea is new to them. Three teenagers-Connor, Risa, and Lev-prepare themselves for the most terrifying experience of their life-they are going to be unwound: taken apart piece by piece by order of their parents. This guide refers to the 2009 paperback reprint edition by Simon & Schuster.
