A new school. A hidden gift. A mystery written in mathematics.
After years of loneliness, bullying, and feeling like she never truly belonged, fourteen-year-old Lyra is given the opportunity of a lifetime-a scholarship to the prestigious Kingsbridge International Academy.
Kingsbridge is everything Ashfall was not. Its beautiful campus, inspiring teachers, and welcoming classmates offer Lyra the chance to start over. For the first time, she begins to believe she might finally have a place to call home.
But something impossible begins to happen.
As Lyra solves mathematical problems, shimmering Silver Lines appear before her eyes-glowing connections that weave through numbers, music, trees, buildings...and even people. No one else can see them.
The more the Silver Lines grow, the more impossible they become to ignore.
As she struggles to balance friendship, family expectations, first love, and the pressure to be perfect, Lyra discovers that her mysterious gift may be connected to a secret far older than Kingsbridge itself. With the guidance of an unexpected teacher, she must decide whether to hide what she sees...or learn to understand it before the Silver Lines consume her.
