The Difference

By Saveon Thompson

The Difference: Book One Eli and Malik Carter are just two brothers trying to survive life as they know it-school, long work shifts, and a home held together by sacrifice and love. Malik, seventeen, carries the weight of responsibility, determined to protect his younger brother no matter what. Eli, ten, is fast, curious, and full of life, unaware that everything he knows is about to be taken from him. When a brutal tragedy strikes their home, the brothers are thrown into a nightmare that defies reality. In a single moment, Eli unleashes a power he cannot control, and Malik is left fighting to survive. But death doesn't come-instead, they wake in a strange, shifting forest where nothing feels real and someone-or something-is watching. Hunted by people who believe they are dangerous, and pursued by forces they don't understand, the brothers are forced into a fight for survival. As Eli's mysterious abilities grow stronger, a terrifying truth begins to emerge: they are not alone-and they were never meant to be. Dark, emotional, and gripping, The Difference is a story of brotherhood, loss, and the terrifying cost of power in a world where children like Eli are no longer just targets... but weapons.
