The Cassie Wilson Series
Cassie has always been able to see things that were odd in the world around her. Things other people couldn't see and wouldn't believe even if she told them. Warned by her grandfather never to let anyone know about the things she saw, Cassie has kept her strange sight to herself.
But now her grandfather has disappeared and people start looking for her. To save herself, and find her grandfather, she has to put that strange sight to use while still holding tight to her secrets.
Quickening
As long as she could remember, Cassie saw things others couldn’t; people with scales and tusks, others who looked normal, but when she touched them, sent her sight elsewhere.
Warned never to let them know she could see them, she lived quietly, hidden. As her eighteenth birthday approaches, the adults who protected her vanish and those who hunt her search, looking to find her before her abilities quicken and she becomes what they most fear.
Training the Walker
All her life Cassie has seen strange things. First it was the strangers with feathers and beaks, then there were the normal looking folks who, when her skin touched hers, sent her vision someplace else.
Told always to hide what she saw, Cassie worked hard to fly under the radar. But when more of these strange others came to town, hiding became harder and she was caught.
Luckily the ones who caught her seem more interested in training her than killing her, at least for now. She begins her training as one of the mysterious Walkers, but is that really what she is, or is Cassie Wilson something else entirely?
The Line Between
After the dawn ritual on her eighteenth birthday, Cassie is welcomed by those of Abraham's pantheon. While she knows she isn't a Walker no one is quite willing to tell her exactly what she is other than 'family'.
They are excited about the skills she might develop as her training begins and she realizes that she is the latest entertainment to break up the long monotony of their eternity.
As she struggles to maintain her place in the regular world and complete her midterms, the mystical world and her newly developing abilities threaten to intrude.
The line between her separate worlds is thin and beginning to blur. How long can Cassie remain a part of both?
