Seventeen-year-old Claire Albrite claims she is the unluckiest teenager in the world. Her mom's dead, she has a horrible stepmother, and her dad hates her. She even compares her life to Cinderella's (Cinderella was poor. Claire's loaded. I see the similarities.). But Claire will soon learn that there's much more to life than dwelling on the bad (which actually might not be so bad after all). Especially when she finds out that her family is descended from a different planet. Even more so when she is destined to lead her people. Of course, that can only happen if she can find THE CRYSTAL. R&R!
