21-year-old Aurora Reynolds is an artist in the canvas of the mind. Rory is a lobe-tech, one of the chosen few who can navigate another's memories to find their most guarded secrets and exploit the intel they're hiding. She's the best chance the country has at stopping the Seers-the terrorist organization using the weather as a weapon.

What she finds inside her new subject's mind is even more startling.
