Rahab Carmichael has never fit in. Part of it is due to her quiet nature but the bigger issue is her trying to hide her secret ability. When she gets transferred to a new boarding school, she decides it is her chance to start fresh and change who she is—or try to, anyway.Rahab does finally start to make friends, but their behavior seems a little odd. Is there a deeper connection between her and these strange kids? She wants to find out but isn’t sure if she wants to risk her own secret being discovered. And topping off that concern is all the unwanted male attention she’s been getting lately—boys are either flirting with or making fun of her, neither of which she wants.Rahab has an intense (and almost obsessive) fear of fire.
