Oliver and Emily are strange. Oliver can heal any physical injury or disease with a tap of his finger. Emily can relieve any mental afflictions with her own magic touch. For most of their lives, they've been content to keep their odd superpowers a secret, but Oliver has grown unsatisfied with inaction. At his mom's suggestion, he presents a benevolent exhibition, saving lives with nothing more than skin contact. While Oliver revels in his good deed, Emily is consumed by dread. She has her own theories about their powers and doesn't believe they're as benign as they appear. She senses that Oliver's charity will quickly lead to chaos. Join Oliver and Emily in Andrew Bacurin's debut novel, a darkly humorous affair that bounces between dysfunctional family dynamics and moments of outright horror. If you're a fan of the charmingly macabre, you may very well find yourself entranced by this anarchic parable on what it means to be good.
