Synopsis
Chloe Saunders is fifteen and wants nothing more than to be normal, but she is a genetically altered necromancer who can raise the dead. She is drawn to a werewolf, although his brother is a sorcerer. She and three friends flee the Edison Group, an evil corporation that wants them eliminated, and set out to find the father of two of the boys. They take shelter in a haunted house, and an adult ally proves to be unreliable.
