Twelve-year-old Carmen has a secret: she can talk to her cat Grim. But the powerful Brotherhood has banned pets, and the penalty is death. Ward is the most wanted boy in the world. The only thing standing between him and the hangman's noose is master criminal Saint Nick. In exchange for Nick's protection, Ward must find the long-lost horn called the Oliphant, said to have the power to wake legendary beings known as the Sleepers, whom Nick believes can aid him in his guerilla war against the Brotherhood. This leads Ward to Carmen, whose family has a long and mysterious association with the Oliphant. Ward and Carmen are soon hot on the trail of the horn, but the Brotherhood are closing in on Carmen's family. Ward and Carmen realise that waking the Sleepers may be the only thing that can save Carmen's parents from certain death. If only they knew how.

"Sometimes, when I look in the mirror, I don't like the face staring back at me," she whispered, looking down at the floor. Her feet were small in front of his and it was then that she realized how close he really was to her. He frowned, asking, "What about when you look in my eyes? Do you like what you see, then?" "I don't know," she whispered. - excerpt from chapter xxi One night, after thinking over her life and contemplating suicide, Rinn Daniels packed up and left home without a second glance. During her first night out, she steals pills from her family, runs from a cop and meets Denver, the boy that learns very early on that there's something peculiar in Rinn's head. In the weeks that follow after their first meeting, he tries to break down the walls Rinn has built around herself but it seems to be a wasted effort.
