Sinopsis

Fifteen-year-old Willow is terrified of her new baby, Lilah, who has a peculiar form of epilepsy. Every time LilahâÇÖs eyes glaze over, terrible things happen: flowers shrivel, food goes to rot - even WillowâÇÖs long, auburn hair turns stark white. But itâÇÖs the death of the family cat that becomes the last straw, in the middle of the night, Willow and her mother dump the infant at the fire station two towns over - and are never heard from again.áThe next morning, Chief Stanley Quinn takes Lilah home and cares for the toddler as best as he can. With medication, her epilepsy remains under control... For the most part.But as a teenager, Lilah isnâÇÖt always keen on taking her pills, and when she sneaks away to a rock concert with the cutest boy in school, something terrible happens, landing both of them in the hospital. After Stanley breaks down and confesses everything to his adopted daughter, she decides to track down the young girl who gave her up sixteen years ago, the young girl who never made it home that night... The young girl who is now presumed to be dead. Soon, LilahâÇÖs quest to find her birth mother becomes a quest to solve a sixteen-year-old missing persons case. She has everything she needs to find her - she just needs to learn how to control her peculiar âÇÖgiftâÇÖ before she kills someone.Again.
