Talia Cornish never knew her parents. She has spent her whole life knowing that she was different from people around her. Hiding her quirks was not an easy task though. When she’s accused of shoplifting, Talia is arrested. Yet, instead of going home, she’s taken to Elsham Home for Gifted Youngsters. A place where it seems perfectly normal to have an imaginary friend at the age of seventeen…
Talia and Devlin, her imaginary friend, meet a whole array of others like them, some with strange talents, and others with things buried deep inside of them. One question Talia is burning to know is: why have they all been brought here? Can what they have be tamed and controlled? Can they be free of their monstrosities? Or do the carers have ulterior motives for her, and her new found friends?
