Synopsis: Ashline and her wild-child sister, Eve, never appeared too remarkable, besides being Polynesian in a white suburban town. That is, until a petty schoolyard quarrel escalates to violence, during which Eve kills a rival of Ashline's in cold blood. Shocked, Ashline moves across the country to a remote private school nestled in California's redwoods, hoping to put the tragedy behind her. But her fresh start doesn't go as planned. After a series of dangerous and mysterious occurrences--an attempted kidnapping, the appearance of paranormal beasts in the local forest--Ashline learns that she and four of her classmates are actually demigods who were summoned to this middle-of-nowhere school by an enigmatic blind girl. As a war between the gods looms over the campus, two very powerful organizations--with very different ideas on how the demigods should use their powers--are vying for control. Both groups want Ashline and her newfound abilities on their side...and some are willing to kill for her. when warm and cold fronts collide, there's guaranteed to be a storm.
