This book is aimed for ages 10-14 and up, with a high interest storyline and lower readability. I love t...

About the book:
Parker can sense strong emotions in others. And the new girl, Mia, is super sad—and secretive. When a pre-cognitive buddy says Mia's pain will lead to their discovery by dangerous people, Parker tries to help Mia. That’s harder than expected, especially when Parker’s gift backfires in a big way.
