Book 1

Twins CJ and Nikki Andrews attend Navia’s Academy for Preternaturals in Illinois, a school for Deviants who create and manipulate fire, water, ice, electricity, or acid. While CJ and Nikki are trying to learn more about the mysteriously vague death of their father, a nearby city is attacked by followers of the insidious Scarlet the Ghost. With the help of their friends, a compassionate teacher, and a stern security guard, the twins investigate the Ghost’s motives–and accidentally involve themselves in the next national war.
