In the future, the mind is everything . . . Hundreds of years into the future, a new species of human has emerged. People with super strength, or speed, or sight, or smell. People known as The Enhanced. After wars have decimated the earth's population, the survivors live in relative safety in the city of Haven. Separated into two parts-Inner and Outer Haven-the city is the final refuge for both the Enhanced, and the regular "Unenhanced." Eighteen-year-old Brie Melrose is just a normal girl living in Outer Haven with the rest of her kind. Growing up in an orphanage, Brie never knew her parents, and her life was always destined to be simple.

Soon, as threats she never even knew existed begin to close in, Brie learns that her world, and the city of Haven, isn't quite what she thought it was. And neither is she . . .
