Claire Gardener; 16 years old and gifted in many ways. Being homeschooled most of her life, and moving from country to country, staying isolated became her norm. The past haunts her, but she's come to terms with it - it made her who she is. But who Claire became terrifies her parents. They want what's best for their daughter, so they sign her up for a summer camp for other gifted individuals, in hopes of rewriting her attitude.

Fights, mysteries, the mythical, and self-discovering; coming to terms with that just because you look and talk like a normal person, doesn't mean you're any less of a monster.

"She had been wandering about the woods aimlessly it seemed, until the acrid smell of something burning and the sight of smoke on the horizon drew her in its direction. Her leisurely pace became a hurried trot, which then became a sprint as a panic she couldn't place settled itself in her heart.

It was here that she saw the source of the smoke, for on the other side of the field, a small town was in ruins." Ember Goldman has just turned nineteen and things just got weird. After partying the night away with friends she'll never see again, Ember returns home to her lonely life of running away from her past. But Fate has other plans for her.

Will she survive the war and save her homeland, or will she crack under the pressure of trying to live in two different worlds?
