A PARANORMAL PAGE-TURNER
San Francisco 1971.
Two girls from opposite worlds —each of them with unique gifts. Brash and bold Charley can touch a hand and glimpse a person's dark secrets and dangerous future. Refined and shy Julia can stir a deadly energetic force that uproots trees and crushes cars in a moment of rage.
When they join a group of teens for a summer of psychic tests at Stanford Research Institute, the experiments quickly turn deadly and more sinister motives emerge. Truth and lies intertwine, and soon, ambition and war outstrip science in a race to manipulate their gifts.
If they are to survive, the unlikely duo must figure out a way to work together. Can Charley and Julia do this and control their innate powers that have long been exploited—and suppressed—by the rest of the world?
