Gr 9 Up—Chicago teen Sara Jane Rispoli is still searching for her parents while battling the mafialike Outfit. With only her wits and electricity-powered abilities to aid in her task, she finally succeeds in finding her family. However, her gift begins to make her sick, and the long-awaited reunion isn't the pleasant meeting for which she had hoped. Goeglein's fast-paced trilogy comes to a suspenseful and thrilling close.
Sara Jane is still looking for answers--about her missing family, how to break from the Chicago Outfit, and about her paranormal-ish "ultimate power"--that remain just out of reach (maybe through the next hidden "Capone Door"). But those who will stop at nothing to keep her in the dark persist in this clumsily plotted conclusion to the over-the-top mob-thriller trilogy.
