What could be worse than finding out you're not human? How about finding out that half of your kind, including your father, want to use you or kill you? But that's only half of 16-year-old Mona's dilemma. The remaining half of the Talonian population is looking to Mona to be their savior.
Sent to Earth as a newborn, Mona spent her first eleven years believing she was human and the next five trying to fit in with others of her kind. Not an easy task for a normal teenager, but even more so for a powerful telepathic seer who must keep her true identity a secret.
Everything seems to be going well until a vision shows her to be the target of an abduction in which someone she loves dies. Chaos ensues as Mona and the guardians tasked to protect her attempt to eliminate the threat before it's too late.
Will they succeed? Or will the enemy find a way to get what they want?
