trista quirk

Social outcast Mahala Doyle, looks your typical young 17-year-old loner girl. As she has realized throughout the years, looks can be very deceiving. On the budding verge of adulthood and freedom, Mahala desperately tries to hide the fact she can read into your very soul and her power is growing. As her abilities grow stronger, people start dying. Mahala is happy to fade into the background of highschool life; resigned to endless loneliness and regarded as a freak by Norms. One moment of clumsiness lands her smack in the arms of a man. Who is hiding shifty secrets of his own. Someone is watching Mahala closely, forcing her to be on her guard. Problem is the more guarded she tries to be, the more everything unravels around her. Too soon watching becomes hunting and for the first time ever, a petrified Mahala must look to others to find strength to survive and possibly love to thrive.
