Fitting in is overrated.
Lareina thinks everything happens for a scientific reason. A boy tries to mess with her, she punches him in the nose. Like Newton said--action, reaction.
Her sister Tasmin's hallucinations aren't so easy to understand.
Beside the usual high school drama and not-so-usual complications of a state-run foster home, Lareina tries to keep Tasmin out of the nuthouse. When the girls run from a brutal attack, Tasmin uses a dormant power to cross over to a world they disappeared from as toddlers. Turns out she's not so crazy after all.
Their new home is divided between advanced technology and magic, but even in this world of weird, the twins don't fit the mold. Finding their place proves more complicated--and dangerous--than either expects.
