Layla Everest has never had it easy. With a dad she rarely sees sober and a twin about as similar as Antartica is from the Sahara, her life was hard enough. But things got a little worse, and a whole lot stranger. The world is no longer what she once thought it was. The impossible is now entirely possible, and people keep doing things that no person should be able to. Then throw in a touch of an old enemy, a sprinkle of an old friend and a dash of strange powers, and you have yourselves her story.
