Daisy has an electrifying secret that could save her life—or kill herHigh school sophomore Daisy Jones is just trying to get by unnoticed. It doesn’t help that she’s the new girl at school, lives in a trailer park, and doesn’t even own a cell phone. But there’s a good reason for all that: Daisy has a secret, unpredictable power—one only her best friend, Danielle, knows about. Despite her “gift” (or is it a curse?), Daisy’s doing a good job of fitting in, and a gorgeous senior named Kevin even seems interested in her! But when Daisy tries to help Vivi, a mysterious classmate in a crisis, she soon discovers that her new friend has a secret of her own. Now Daisy and her friends must deal with chilling dreams and messages from the beyond. Can Daisy channel the power she’s always tried to hide, before it’s too late? Extra features include:• A short graphic novel telling Vivi’s story• Danielle’s journal, revealing her deepest thoughts • Lyrics and video links for Kevin's music (songs composed by Fredrik Larsson, otherwise known as YouTube sensation FreddeGredde)

Industry Reviews

"A fantastical and historical ghost story that benefits from . . . the presence of young love." -Kirkus Reviews
"This smart paranormal novel is more than aware of its predecessors, and subverts them brilliantly. Gift is smart, striking, and I hope the first of many YA novels from Andrea Buchanan." -Saundra Mitchell, author of The Vespertine and The Springsweet "A good story that doesn't rely on tricks and gimmicks." -VH1's blog, The FABlife "CREEPY. I think that's the word we're looking for here. WEIRD, dark, disturbing, with a Gothic feel." -Tanita Davis, author of Mare's War
