In the upbeat village of Austin Valley, all appears to be perfect. A local teenager, Em Fuller, however, fears something is askew. Em is part of a new generation of Dream Travelers. For unknown reasons, the gods have not seen fit to gift all of them with their expected special abilities.
Em is a Defect—one of the unfortunate ones not gifted with a psychic power. Desperate to do whatever it takes to earn her gift, she endures painful daily injections along with commands from her obsessively overbearing and loveless father. One of the few positive moments in her life is the return of a friend she had thought dead—but with his return comes the knowledge of a shocking, unforgivable truth. The society Em thought was protecting her has actually been betraying her, and she has no idea how to break away from its authority without hurting everyone she loves. $0.99 on Kindle.
