One of these people is Scott Bremman, a twenty-year-old grocery worker who is uncertain of himself and what he wishes to do with the future.Things are going to change for them both, and soon. After Ingrid is attacked yet again by her foster brother, she flees into the protecting arms of Scott and her friend from work, Lisa. Lisa knows things about Ingrid--that she was born in another world during a war, that there are forces intent on destroying that world forever--that Ingrid doesn't know herself. It's time for her to find out, and return to her true home as the only person capable of rescuing it from darkness.
