YA
In the underworld of 1919 Boston, best friends Ada and Corinne are entertainers, reluctant con artists, and "hemopaths," persecuted for their abilities to manipulate emotions and create illusions. When their refuge comes under attack and Ada must be rescued from a sinister hemopath asylum, the conspiracies the pair uncovers hit close to home. Devastating twists, luminous friendships, and stellar world-building mark this page-turning debut.
