Necessary Gifts

Seventeen year old Aleta Faye's world is so simple that it takes big things to get the gears turning again. A theft, a death, and a dress to be exact. She is becoming unsatisfied with what she can see, and desiring what she cannot. There are ways to control the world in which she lives, and breaking the rules of her dictator is her best shot on getting there. Almost on accident, she gains inevitable power, and with it inevitable tragedy. All she knows is that Alister Reede is the push that brought her up. But how long will she stay up there? How long can the gift keep on giving?
