Synopsis
Chloe Saunders has been genetically altered by a secretive group called the Edison Group. She can see ghosts and is a necromancer whose uncontrolled powers raise the dead. She, a sorcerer, a werewolf and a witch are on the run, and they must find someone who can help them before the Edison Group catches up with them. Chloe, a teenager who first arrived at Lyle House believing she was mentally ill, now has to cope with powers she cannot control while the group keeps moving.
