Six years after the Great Awakening, Olivia Osborne is done hiding. It is time to emerge from the shadows and lead the gifted to their rightful place. But as she struggles to restore order and plant the roots of a new society, old loyalties tighten their grip, ancient enemies stir, and forces hungry for power refuse to wait their turn. The demands of retribution for past mistakes and past losses mount, leading Olivia to a place where she no longer recognizes herself. With the fate of the gifted hanging in the balance, Olivia must decide how much of herself she is willing to sacrifice to build a better world-and whether that world can survive the cost. The future is awakening, and it will not wait.
