"J.M. Miro drags his readers from the U.K. to the U.S. and beyond as the staff of the Cairndale Institute track down children with magical powers, known as Talents. Something terrible and deadly is hunting the children, and the inscrutable Dr. Berghast who runs the institute is up to some very nefarious activities. One by one the children and their allies are picked off by forces from another realm who seek the power in the youngest Talent, Marlowe, the boy with the strange blue light. A creepy, unsettling dark historical fantasy with enough twists and turns to keep you on the edge of your seat."
