The novels follow the story of Lila, a 17-year-old with the power of telekinesis, and Alex, her brother’s best friend and long-time love interest. When a mugging on the streets of South London goes horribly wrong and exposes her unique ability, Lila runs away to Southern California, where Alex and her brother are working for a secret organisation called The Unit and searching for the men who killed Lila’s mother five years before. Lila unwittingly becomes embroiled in the hunt and a suspenseful murder mystery ensues.

    This book sounds good! And I like the cover. I'm sort of wondering why the author would call the organization "The Unit", though. It seems like maybe not the best choice, lol. Good pick!

    I saw this one last week and added it to my to-read list via Goodreads :). I really hope that it also gets released in the US though--I'm assuming that since it's being published by S&S UK it won't be? I'm not sure. The author was really nice though and added me on Goodreads after I added it. It has such a pretty cover & compelling synopsis! Great choice :).
