Every act of defiance steers you into the person you were always been meant to become.

After Nimaka's death and the older selves returning to their own time, Kylie ran from all she'd known and grown up with at North Opal Pines, but she soon learns she can't run far or fast enough.

She thought she could leave it all behind: go back to being a normal high school student, make new friends, keep her grades up and her mother happy. But Nimaka's death has only rallied the two other, and now they've stalked Kylie to her new school. Even worse, they have a mysterious new leader who no longer seeks to just kill Kylie but all those she knows and loves.... and the body count is rising.

Kylie can't get by on "just surviving" anymore: to protect herself — let alone those around her — she must become as strong and cunning as Siani was, or she'll not only become trapped in the incarnation cycle but everyone she's ever known and loved will die with her.
