Liara Rivel is just trying to live her life the best she can, but that gets kind of hard whenever you can hear the thoughts of everyone around you. Not to mention she's considered incapable of actually using the magic her world runs on, basically making her a failure. And then a new guy shows up... and then a weird guy shows up at her work... and her telepathy medicine stops working. As if that wasn't bad enough, her world is turned upside down she discovers that her life might not be what she thought it was, and now her friends are on the run with her as they try to untangle a web of lies.
