Publisher's Synopsis
What if you realised that your whole life was a lie?
Everyone in a Leeds Care Home believes Alex Shelley is an orphan, including Alex. When her sixteenth birthday triggers an awareness
of another past, her real identity awakens. Gripped by a visceral urge to run away, get away and hide somewhere safe, Alex escapes
the Home, flees to London, and narrowly avoids being murdered by an assassin called Rictor. On the run in London, Alex briefly meets two helpers, who warn her that she must keep running to survive. Her sudden enemies are now the Illuminati, who are determined to suppress the gifts she
has begun to inherit, by any means. As Rictor races to London, the hunt to find Alex is joined by a loyal Guardian with honed combat
skills and the heart of a lioness. In a stronghold hidden deep in the Pyrenees mountains, Alex also meets Tomasz, whose hostile attitude makes no sense, until the darkness of their shared past is revealed. As the real battle approaches, the choices they make alone will shape both of their futures forever.
