This is a book from a series called "The Shadow Children books." They are interesting and sad and happy! The series begins with Among the Hidden.

Matthias is an abandonded 3rd child who wakes up one night and is kidnapped by the population police. He tries to escape with his friends, but ends up causing more trouble and gets into a real mess. He finds a cabin and tries to nurse his friends. There is much more.

Why are the population police so stupid and can't tell disguises from real?

How come everything is so strange and why is the commander so evil and yet so kind? The commander seems like an evil man until Matthais gets to know him. The commander still is bad, but he is nice to Matthais. Matthais knows that the commander is bad, but the commander doesn't know that Matthais is a third born. If he knew, everything would be different!

I rate this book: Excellent
