A pandemic. Solar flares. Climate change. Famine. War. Death. Humanity would have been doomed if it wasn't for the rise of the Ableds—the common term for people with uncommon abilities. Canary is driven. She is fearless. She has a robust sense of self-preservation that she readily ignores if saving herself means putting others in danger. She leads a rag-tag team of Ableds who are the only family she's ever known. In a world where abilities define who an Abled is, hers change every time she uses them. The first generation of Ableds saved a dying Earth long before Canary was born, but now a new crisis someone is kidnapping Abled children. No one knows who is behind the abductions, and the children's non-Abled family members are never left alive, proving that the kidnappers are as violent as they are heartless. Canary's mission is to find out who is behind the kidnappings and stop any more families from being ripped apart. As her team begins to unravel the truth, a shattering betrayal comes from within and Canary must decide if she would rather fade into obscurity, or step up and prove that she is more than a pawn.
