Alice always new she was different from the day she electrocuted the neighbors cat. Strange things always seemed to happen when she was around, and her parents seemed to be hiding something from her. She tells herself that she's a bad person, but her parents call her "Special." Yeah, special as in insane. But when her parents ship her off to Maine to attend a boarding school she's never heard of, she realizes that the aches in her back, and her extreme headaches are the result of qualities she never imagined she would have.
She soon realized that the professors at the school seem to be hiding something. They always teach students things that seem to be completely irrelevant, and when the students ask why, they seem to all stick to different lies.
Will Alice cope with her newfound abilities, create new friendships, and find out the big secret?
