"After being forced away for seventeen years, Alice is finally home. But home isnt what she thought it would be, and every day the secrets she holds from her parents grow with weight. But how do you tell your mother and father that youre not normal? That the world is a far more dangerous place than they have ever known and you are anything but the small, innocent child that was torn from their arms all those years ago? Owen cant say goodbye, and Alice cant hold on to him tightly enough as the pressures of danger and obligation grow stronger and stronger. With a broken heart, Owen is headed to San Francisco with his crew of musicians. But the Golden City is filled with history and secrets, and brutal deaths are just lying in wait for Owen and his people. To survive these trials and this city, Owen will need everything he has--even the broken parts he gave to Alice--to have any hope of doing the impossible one more time."--Publisher marketing.
