A STEM-driven YA science-fiction thriller about a Filipina-Chinese aspiring physicist whose martial arts training may be the key to controlling an ability at the edge of known science.
To seventeen-year-old Lianne Reyes Kwan, the world follows rules. If you understand them-if you pay attention-you can keep the people you love safe. Until the day she can't.When a sudden structural failure turns catastrophic, Lianne reacts on instinct-intervening with a precision that shouldn't be possible. For a fraction of a second, she doesn't resist the force. She aligns with it. What she can do isn't strength, but something far more dangerous: the ability to interact with the hidden patterns threaded through reality itself.
She's not the only one who notices. Interest in her ability turns into confrontations, and unexplained tremors begin to threaten Pacifica Bay. Meanwhile, Lianne is drawn to her late mother's research that suggests her ability isn't an anomaly, but part of something larger. Something that can be studied. Replicated. Weaponized.
As the systems she trusted begin to fail, Lianne must decide how much she's willing to risk to protect the people she loves.
The world doesn't break all at once. It starts with a tremor.
