With her father gone and her newfound abilities barely under control, twelve-year-old Tallah lives alone on the streets, shoplifting for food, fending off predators, and trying to steer clear of law enforcement. Torn between using her powers to lash out at the world, to seize control of her situation, or to make herself invisible, Tallah is lost, adrift without a guide—until she meets a girl around her age named Harmony, who also lives on the streets.

Over time, Tallah grows to trust Harmony enough to reveal the secret of her abilities. But as the pair grows closer, Harmony’s darker motivations become clear, culminating in an act of betrayal that ultimately leads Tallah to turn her back on the whole of humanity—including her own. Consumed by anger, Tallah embarks on an odyssey of destruction, unleashing the full force of her volatile powers, which puts her on a collision course with the authorities, bent on her destruction. In the end, Tallah’s only hope for redemption lies in the promise of a new town, a new civilization—a utopia she can create on her own. But before she can build her future, she needs to reckon with the ghosts of her past.
