title: The Hidden Truth
author: Swart, Janeen
description: After being struck by lightning while jogging, Clara's dreams cause her to question the issues of DNA changes, cloning, and genetically modifying food. In her dreams she visits an environmentally perfect world where an angel-like being tells her to watch for a sign.
  
   While Clara searches for answers, her boyfriend, Brian, becomes active in demonstrations against a local biophysics company, named aptly, New Nature. Clara convinces her Science Club to begin a project to confront this company to make them more accountable. She and John, a new friend, vow to do their part, using peaceful strategies.
  
   Brian's jealousy results in several uncomfortable incidents between the three teens. Things go awry when a few of the Science Club members go beyond simple investigation by breaking into New Nature, then later sabotaging the company's biosphere.
  
   What's even more troublesome is the fact that Clara suspects her ex may be the one behind the crimes.
  
   Relationships and beliefs are tested as Clara searches out the truth. In the end, her questions are answered, but at a cost, she hadn't anticipated.
