Back cover:
‘Maybe it would be better if I started at the
beginning.’ Gran watched me carefully. ‘This ability we have; my mother, me.
You. We draw heat along our bodies; anger makes us flame.’
When her friend is assaulted, Corrine Peterson
can’t help reacting. But she didn’t think and now her hands are burnt, Gran is
coming to look after her and, scariest of all, strange men are watching her
house. Could they be terrorists? Secret agents?
It seems that Gran’s idea of a solution is to
introduce Corrine to Rowan. Okay, sure, maybe eighteen year old Rowan is
gorgeous – but he has his own troubles. And right now, Corrine doesn’t need
complications in her life.
But in a world of surveillance and secrecy,
complexity is inevitable. And as the tension mounts Corrine realizes that maybe
Gran can help her, after all.
