Publisher's Synopsis
The explosive supernatural fantasy novel that inspired the blockbuster manga thriller!
The trouble began when ninth grader Kakeru found a beautiful teenage psychic named Ayano in his room-in desperate need of help. She and her equally gifted friends had just escaped from a secret organization whose agents train young psychics to carry out their fiendish plans.
Now psychic thugs have been ordered to hunt down the runaways-and Kakeru. Ayano is certain the only reason they haven't been caught is that Kakeru's supernatural skills are saving them. Kakeru, who thinks he's utterly ordinary, finds this hard to believe. Still, why do amazing things happen whenever disaster threatens to strike? Why did a girl whisper "Kakeru" right before experiencing a truly mind-blowing death? For better or worse, what happens next will depend on Kakeru. But first he must discover what his friends and enemies already know: the dangerous truth about himself.
