Juliette Ferrars can kill with her touch, and it’s the reason why she’s been abandoned by her parents and locked up in an asylum. Clinging to her sanity, Juliette is suddenly taken from her four wall prison and brought before Warner, one of the sector heads for the ruling body known as The Reestablishment. Warner possesses an extremely keen interest in what Juliette can do, and she is horrified to learn that he wants to use her as a weapon. Juliette, however, would rather face the consequences for not cooperating, even death, than become the monster she’s always been labeled as.
