Allison Noble never liked the Baileys. They were too good-looking, too popular, too charming to be legitimate. For most of their high school career she avoided the pair, convinced their outward affability was just a ruse to disguise their true character. Okay, yeah, she's a little neurotic. Even so, she never suspected that what they were hiding was dangerous. It never occurred to her that they might have abilities based more in fiction than reality. Why would it? People can't produce fire with their bare hands. There are no such things as mind control and telekinesis. Except, she discovers, there are. The Baileys are Elect, gifted with supernatural powers Allison is able to not only sense, but use herself. In the history of the Elect, there has never been one such as she, and with good reason. Because she wasn't born to such power, she has a difficult time controlling it. Accidents happen, putting them all at risk. As others draw near-some who wish to protect her, others who want to destroy her-she is forced to uncover the secrets of her past, and face the consequences of being what her own kind refers to as an abomination.
