Gold Medal Winner, Glimmer, launches The Black Swan Files! At certain moments in history, when several impossible-to-predict events collide, they create what’s known as a Black Swan—an event that can change how we look at science, technology, even our history. Jocelyn Albrecht is one such Black Swan. Infected by the biotechnology her parents sought to develop, she has become human enhanced—an H+. The accident that gave Jocelyn new powers also killed her family. In their place she is raised at Camp Holliwell by “her uncle”—a government funded scientist—and his league of doctors who study and test Jocelyn daily in the hopes of learning how to replicate her. The military has another goal in mind—to make her an asset. After losing one family and the home where she belonged, Jocelyn strives to keep her Holliwell family happy, as odd as they might be. That is until she finds out the truth…Uncle Laurence is using her as a guinea pig, her brother and sister are still alive, and she doesn’t have long to live. Now Jocelyn only cares about finding her real family. The problem—breaking out of a highly classified, military facility before the next experiment kills her.

Review 2016 IPPY AWARD GOLD MEDALIST WINNER - GLIMMER! Glimmer is a thrilling adventure set in the near future and it completely took me by surprise! Sunnie is a H+, raised at Camp Holliwell, she knows little about the outside world and even less about who or what she is...at least until one simple question throws Sunnie into a world of uncertainty. [Glimmer] produces a strange mix of tech, thriller, romance and adventure...The book was a great read and thankfully notanother carbon copy of The Hunger Games or Twilight...I highly recommend it. -Sarah Palmer, YA LoveMagazine I loved this story. I loved the heroine's powers. And there's loads of different perspectives of people trying to help her. If you love books with telekinesis, secret government agencies, and superhero powers then this book is for you...Glimmer is like James Bond meets X-Men! -Benjamin Alderson, BenjaminoftomesBooktube Channel Glimmer was super intense. It was so fast-paced you did not want to put the book down. It had a modern day feel but also a futuristic feel. [Cerrone's] writing was so detailed and well-executed, and it was nice to see all the different perspectives...and how it all came together. A gripping novel...it will keep readers on the edge of their seat. It has everything that you would want in a futuristic sci-fi book. It is action-packed...but with relatable characters. You will not be disappointed! -Nicole and Marija, Let'sTalk Books Booktube Channel Glimmer is a military thriller about genetically enhanced teenagers, reminiscent of Robert Ludlums's spy classic The Bourne Identity. Glimmer's depiction of mind control and captivity was believable and gripping. My heart raced each time Jocelyn fell back into her tormentors' hands...Another plus was the racially diverse cast, including a couple of girls with serious skills in the STEM fields. The female camaraderie and resourceful teamwork provided good role models in an often male-dominated genre. -North Street Book Prize, Honorable Mention: Critique by Jendi Reiter

Great, innovative storyline with edge-of-seat action By Lynne Marshall Glimmer (The Black Swan Files: 001) by Tricia CerroneIf you’ve enjoyed YA dystopian books like Divergent, Hunger Games, and The Maze Runner, I highly recommend this book.Jocelyn/Sunny is a human-enhanced teenager, and is a very sympathetic character to root for. Trying her best to live life as well as she knows how, she goes through each day with a positive attitude, almost child-like in character, as the toughest challenges imaginable are thrown at her from the powers that be at Camp Holliwell. This existence is almost robotic in nature, until she meets Seth. Part surly, part hunky guy with few options in life, Seth has volunteered to become enhanced. Of course he doesn’t have a clue what he is getting into, and once he does it’s too late to get out. Then he meets Sunny and his sense of justice and humanity supersedes his desire to only look out for number one. I loved their give and take relationship and how he is a catalyst for Jocelyn becoming a kick-ass heroine.As the challenges for survival mount, Jocelyn discovers there is far more to life than her guarded world at Holliwell. Inquisitive and smart, Jocelyn, with the help of Seth, goes about unraveling the secrets about her real life, the one she had ripped away from her, the family she’d lost, and the devious, world-changing plans at the camp. No way will she sit by and let this horror play out, but will her plan be enough to overpower the scientific and military forces at the government-run camp?Tricia Cerrone has created a fabulous and diverse cast of characters, all superbly written and believable, and each contributing a special ingredient to this twisted and full-bodied story. The intricate and unique plot keeps the reader fully engaged throughout the adventure.Great, innovative storyline with edge-of-seat action while still managing to tug on the heartstrings. The reader cannot miss the needed doses of humor and sweet romance injected into this enhanced dystopian gem!I was fortunate to receive an advanced copy for an honest review.
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Gripping and well written. Cheers to Miss Cerrone for another winner! By Amazon Customer What an amazing fast paced novel. I don't usually read this type of book but am so glad I did! It gripped me from the first chspter and held me til one in the morning so I could finish the last one. The characters were very well developed and were so realistic that you will root for them, cheer them, maybe even shed a tear with them (albeit not a blue one) on occasion. Definately worth the money and time! Would make a great Christmas present for that someone special this holiday season. Can'f wait for the next in he Black Swann series. Thanks Miss Cerrone for a great read!
4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Truly Amazing. By Roben Amazing!I only just finished reading Glimmer. It's a lengthy book, but a story well told. It totally captivated me and had me turning the pages way into the night. It's a fast-paced, young adult thriller, set in the not too distant future. I could totally relate, although I don't normally read a lot of YA or dystopian/futuristic literature. This one came highly recommended and I'm thankful for that.Ms. Cerrone did a great job with well-developed, totally believable characters, even those who were human-enhanced. I never lost track of who the characters were, what their goals were, and what bought them together, bonded them to help Jocelyn in her quest for freedom. The author's imagination knows no bounds, and her wonderful storytelling and attention to detail are a true gift.Glimmer will have you begging for more. I know I can't wait to continue with this series.
