Special powers given at birth come with a price, stronger and more powerful than any human can handle on their own. There is a test for each power, but unknown to each individual, they must earn that gift and share it unselfishly with others, instead of losing it to greater powers. To the human eye, these powers are hidden, to those trained in the arts, no power goes unnoticed. Elise is of age to earn her special powers, ones that she is unaware she holds. Obstacles come into her path. Who can she trust? Will she be able to stop the evil following her and fulfill her prophecy?\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Balboa Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47134873813232,"sku":"9781452582122","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781452582122_p0.jpg?v=1763849228","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781452582122","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
