Chloe Saunders used to be a normal teenage girl – or so she thought. Then she learned the shocking truth – she is a walking science experiment. Genetically altered at birth by a sinister group of scientists known as the Edison Group, Chloe is an aberration – a powerful necromancer who can see ghosts and even raise the dead, often with terrifying consequences. Even worse, her growing powers have made her a threat to the surviving members of the Edison Group, who have decided it’s time to end their experiment – permanently . . .
Now Chloe is running for her life with three other supernatural teenagers – a charming sorcerer, a troubled werewolf and a temperamental young witch. Together they have a chance for freedom – but can Chloe trust her new friends?

Reviews
Armstrong has some fun toying with supernatural teen thriller conventions, and the taut pacing should please fans of the exploding genre.
Action, danger, supernatural secrets, and a hint of romance --.Armstrong's world is one in which trusting the wrong person can have dire consequences.
..splendidly haunting, with hair-raising suspense, disturbing effects, and a running undercurrent of unease.
Suspenseful, well-written and engaging.
A page-turner. Readers will anticipate the book to follow.
