Born with the rare ability to draw glimpses of the future, 18-year-old Blanche lives a quiet life until she discovers a mysterious book buried in the local library, called The Keepers of the Gleam. Her quest for answers leads her to a whirlwind reality as she's pulled into a hidden world of gifted individuals, ancient secrets, and people who may not be what they seem.
Who left the book? What is the mysterious force connecting the gifted? Why does she feel like the fate of more than just her world is at stake? And why is this Andrew Clarksen so damn annoying?
With new allies, rising stakes, and no clear path forward, Blanche must learn to trust herself and the gift she once feared.
Can the fall of one civilization awaken hope for another?

Beneath the Shadowlanders
We knew something wasn't right from the moment we awoke. It was like something was missing - a part of our very souls - and we couldn't sense the deficiency, no matter how hard we tried. A hundred million eyes adjusted to the dark all at once, all surprised to be awakened so soon. We ran through our checklists of limbs and senses, drawing ourselves out of our dreams piece by piece. Some went back to sleep, unaware, unbothered, too tired to notice the difference. Some lay in bed, too anxious to stand until the light of dawn crept through their windows at last, and they were sure the monsters in their closets had gone back to sleep. Some leapt from their slumbers, more keenly aware than others that the missing pieces were important. But we didn't know. We couldn't have. Not until we found ourselves standing in the light and discovered: We no longer had shadows.Complete
