Kelsey Hale thinks she's just a typical mixed-up teenager. Everyone feels that way, her teachers assure her. Yet, strange things happen to her, like food disappearing before she can eat it and hearing music no one else hears. Then, a giant flaming bird drops an alien at her feet. Well, good grief, how can you ignore something like that? Abducted from Earth, the only planet she's ever known, Kelsey finds herself thrust into the middle of a deadly conflict among alien worlds and parallel universes. She must not only survive, but also find a way to rescue her father from a dangerous group with unknown motives. In the process, she's confronted by a hidden secret about herself which will shake the very foundation of who and what she thought she was. And connecting it all are the mysterious Weavers. Book 1 in "The String Weavers" series.
