15 year old Jem has a gift, or perhaps a curse. When she looks into someone’s eyes, she sees the exact date of their death. Jem has been moved from foster home to foster home and does her best to avoid people and not become involved. One day she meets Spider, another social outcast, and against all her rules, Jem begins a friendship with him. They become more dependent on each other when they escape a terrorist bombing and run away from police interrogation. Numbers is an exciting, fast-paced novel filled with suspense, romance, and psychic powers. The best part – it’s the beginning of a trilogy! You can bet I already have the next book: Num8ers: the chaos.
