(3) YA Marlena has always been a healer; now eighteen, she lives in isolation with her mother, who arranges audiences with the ailing. While she believes in the power of the visions she experiences, encounters with a curious neuroscientist lead Marlena to question her gift--and her mother's motivations. Marlena's apparently supernatural talents provide an intriguing context to the story's angsty rebellion and doomed romance.
