Gemma, a seventeen-year-old orphan and empath, wants nothing more than to be normal. But after her older sister is killed in a hit-and-run, she discovers she can drain the energy out of any living thing. Fearing she might hurt someone with the faintest touch, Gemma flees from her foster home-guided by a boy she's dreamed about for years but doesn't believe is real.
Meanwhile, Theo, the eighteen-year-old astral-projecting leader of a ragtag group of magical misfits, is doing everything he can to protect his found family after he failed to keep his little sister alive. From rummaging through dumpsters for food, stealing from convenience stores, and throwing punches in illegal fighting rings for extra cash, there's nothing he won't do to keep the crew safe from the Authorities who are hunting kids like them.
When Gemma shows up in Theo's world, their dreams become a shocking reality. The problem is that neither thought the other truly existed. Now they have to learn how to trust each other in person, as much as they had in their fantasies, if they want their secrets to remain hidden. What's worse, Theo didn't guide her there. Instead, a vengeful entity hell-bent on stealing Gemma's powers did. She and Theo must work through their grief to banish him or risk losing each other for good. But doing so won't be easy when kids with powers are being hunted by something far, far worse than a ghost.
In a cruel, contemporary world, can a handful of teens rely on one another to beat the odds?
