Tempest Laurier appears to be an average seventeen year old who fits right in as a high school senior, but she has a secret she’s been hiding since she was adopted as a small child. Although she cannot remember much of her life before her adoption, nightmares, sightings and odd things have always happened to her. With a memory of a hallway taken by fire and a closed door at its end, Tempest unwittingly discovers that danger reaches close to home. Finding herself caught in the middle, she sees things that no one else can, giving her clues into a conflict among two worlds of the Species within our world, laced with faeries and demons, truth and deception. This leads her onto a crumbling road of physical and psychological pain, along with loss as relationships are tried and truths are discovered. When Tempest’s adoptive “perfect family” starts to act differently toward her, she decides to search for her birth father, bringing more than demons out of the shadows. The one thing Tempest never saw coming is an ugly secret straight into the heart of what should be her normal human life as she struggles to link her past with her present before it kills her.
