Thea sees too much. Every aura, every lie, every thread of emotion bleeding through the people around her. So when she arrives at Millhaven Academy — a boarding school for kids the system doesn't know what to do with — she expects the usual: broken people wearing bright masks. She doesn't expect to find three others carrying the same impossible frequency in their soul. Cole moves through shadows like they belong to him. Yuna contains a strength that terrifies her. Kai can swim through digital networks with his mind. None of them chose to be here. None of them know why they're connected. But someone does. Millhaven is not what it appears to be. The staff are not all who they claim to be. And the four of them were not gathered in one place by accident. As they dig deeper into the school's secrets, they'll discover that the truth about what they are is far more dangerous than anything they've survived alone. People are watching. A clock is ticking. And the closer they get to answers, the more they realize that everyone around them — even the people trying to help — is only telling them half the truth.
