What if, all along, migraines were a sign of your brain... trying to evolve?

Napoleon, Darwin, Julius Caesar, Virginia Woolf, Van Gogh... they all got migraines. So do Echo and Flynn. And it sucks.Until the day young adults with migraines start developing new mental abilities called aether: Animus. Wispr. Psychokinesis. Scry. Precog. Snapshot.Yet aether is also a death sentence. At some point, everyone who has it gets a sudden, fatal brain bleed.Which means they'll die... but until then, the haters - and the government's anti-aether lockdown - are making the lives of everyone with aether hell.So Echo and Flynn flee to find sanctuary. To find themselves.But while in hiding they discover it's the lies people tell - and the secrets they keep - that may be the greatest threat of all to their short, fragile lives.
