Let's Jump Back In to Sunshine (Sushine 12)

So, surprise! I'm going to get back to Sunshine instead of sharing a TDOSH. I started doing a few TDOSHs and they were kind of lacking and I need to do a lot of re-reading to catch the story back up. I'm not saying no more TDOSHing but I'll put it in my back pocket for later.


It's Pronounced...
As I was re-reading Veritas I found this little exchange I totally forgot about where I explain the pronunciation of Mjollner:

"Minnie I have a question, the Me-something you keep mentioning--,"

"The Mjöllner ? It's Me-joln-er. It's the Soviet cartel, there  a pretty big threat but only if you mess with them. Mostly they think the arms race is still going on,"

"Should I be worried ?,"

"You ? No, not really,"

Sunshine Recap
Kian Donnelly, the secret oldest son of Rayne Washington is after the money and power from the family he never knew. He poses as Kenji Washington to get inside Rias Washington' house. He plans to kill the adults and kidnap the girls and then reveal himself to the world as the only living true heir.

What Kian doesn't account for  is Eloise "El" Washington leaving the house in the middle of the night after a fight with her parents. She runs for her life with her grandparents to Arkham Academy for shelter. There she meets her cousin Kenji and  Isaac, his loyal sexy cyborg ex-soldier security guard.

But it's not entirely safe. Alex Haley is kidnapped when he goes back to the city and visits the apartment complex Kian burned to flush them out. He finds himself locked in a lab with Alan Gray.

Back at Arkham, they run a DNA test from Jean Dory's shoe and discover one of the men working with the attackers might be an Armenian gang member ? Kenji gets mad at Isaac for running the DNA through the student database, they have a fight and when he leaves El follows....

They step outside just in time to watch bombs falling on the campus. Issac and El make a run for it and end up  lost in the Quiet--the places that were unsettled after the Serial Wars.

Other things:

• Colette has a motorcycle club called the Furies. She and Twyla get answers about Kian from Ivy
• When Haley is kidnapped he discovers Alan, Minnow, Angel and Atsumi are alive and Alan is trying to earn Kian's trust.
• Haley has a 6-year-old son named Grayson who is taking it really hard that Haley disapeared without a trace...

The last few sections have been about Twyla and Haley and take place before the bombs fall on Arkham. And we're going to go back one more time before catching back up...
