My name is Skylar Assad.
From a very young age, I've been different. See, I have this weird ability to see things. Things others can't.
Sounds cool, right?
Nope.
Skylar is a normal teenager, with one exception. She can see things, things others can only dream of. Whether it's a velociraptor, a hooded killer, or an elephant with a hat, she encounters the extraordinary every day.
At home, she has a relatively normal life. She lives with her parents, sister Alyssa, brother Mark, and friendly resident spider Tom. She takes care of her fish, reads books, writes stories, and bakes cookies. The only downside is that Mark is the only one who even tries to understand what she sees. But hey, she's used to it by this point.
Then her whole world turns on its head. A series of events, including a mysterious encounter with a boy at school and the return of her attempted assassin, make her question if she's the only one with a Sight. On top of it all, her brother becomes deathly ill and is transported to a hospital across the country, leaving Skylar alone, and in grave danger.
In one week, her life goes from just plain weird to extraordinary, as she is exposed to a plot that may put the fate of the entire world in jeopardy.
And the most terrifying thing? She may be the only one who can stop it.
