A mighty flame follows a tiny spark Cora Sandoval lives an insulated, unexciting life. Mostly, she blames her dad. Her mother disappeared from Ireland when she was five and he's been a human handcuff ever since. Cora's life suddenly propels into the extraordinary when she begins to see colorful lights around people. Everyone, that is, except herself-instead, she glows only a brilliant, luminous silver. Cora has reason to believe that someone is hunting and killing people like her-if there are any others like her who are still alive... While investigating the danger associated with these auras, Cora is inexplicably drawn to Finn, a gorgeous Irish exchange student. Their attraction is instant, magnetic, and primal-but her father disapproves, and Finn's mother abruptly orders him back to Ireland. As mysteries add up, Cora realizes that the small life she's always known was a lie. On the run from a supernatural killer, she flees to Ireland to look for her missing mother and learn the truth about herself. There she meets another silver-haloed person and, amidst threats and danger, discovers the meaning of her newfound powers and their role in a conspiracy spanning centuries-one that could change mankind forever...if it doesn't kill her first.
