In a world ruled by an advanced society of Tellers and Seekers, many Movers were forced to live in hiding. Telekinesis is an ability worthy of death in their eyes. No one even dares to mention what it means to be a Mover, much less, how to hide from the seekers. That is, until Rayne Andersen came along. Rayne felt she had the unfortunate luck of being born as a Mover, which doubled her chances of being caught by the Epsilon government. With cameras all over the city, one slip up on her part could cost her life. When Rayne discovers that she has the potential to access her true abilities, will she be able to overthrow the corrupt government, or will she simply find herself indefinitely trapped in a windowless room?

M., a college sophomore, is haunted by the events of a year ago that ended another girl's life. In an attempt to clear her conscience, she writes her confession down in a battered notebook addressed to a stranger. This search for redemption is far more painful than she ever imagined, and she struggles to cope with her grief and guilt. As M. spirals deeper into herself, she must ask what the cost of absolution is...and if she's still willing to pay it. [ Wattpad featured story | cover by MayTijssen ]
