For Angel, Lucy, and Maria, time is running out and their only hope for survival rests in each other’s hands.

Then I could make sense of the fire, and the city disaster, and all those men who were after me.This is how Tracy begins her story, and how her special power labeled her as one of the gifted.When youthful wanderlust causes a naive couple from Ottawa Canada to get on a motorcycle, and head to British Columbia, they had no way of knowing just what a life changing adventure they were embarking on. Monica is only one week from her eighteenth birthday and leaving behind her family, and a cat that she adores. While Jeff is taking with him the only thing of any value that he feels he has, his one true love, Monica.Meeting a slightly older and wiser American couple along the way in an old Mustang, Pete and Issy, turns out to be the best thing that happens to them, but also the worst. Will Pete convince Jeff to smoke some of his weed with him, even if Monica is threatening to leave if he does? Or will their new found quest to save the world empower them all to stay together no matter what? And just what trouble does Monica cause when she convinces Jeff yet again to let her take a turn at the controls of the motorcycle? They all enjoy the simple pleasure of roasting marshmallows over a campfire, and are all enchanted by an unexpected encounter with some large wildlife in the Badlands. They even take time to contemplate over a famous battlefield. All of this occurs while on their way to the Rocky Mountains. And once in the Rockies they come face to face with their biggest and most unexpected foe. The outcome is uncertain, but the excitement and passion they all experience is definite. And while all this is happening to the two couples on the highways of North America, Monica’s cat Juniper is back in Ottawa trying to figure out the answers to the universe on her own. Views: 379
