Zara Carter has never fit in at in Runaway Heights, a secret community of teens hiding from their own personal hells. No one has been worth the risk of opening her heart. After years of strangers and hurt, it's safer to keep it locked up. Things would've stayed that way had it not been for the inkpen, a device that pushes Zara's artistic talents firmly into the realm of magic. The tattoos she creates come to life, and each design gives her a taste of her deepest desire: a heart filled with hope and love. But power like that doesn't go unnoticed. Assigned to the Supernatural Cases Division, Agent 97's feelers are out, searching the decaying industrial town for a wild girl with a remarkable talent that could change the world. If only he could catch her.
