They say the pen is mightier than the sword. In Sleepwater's world, words are literally more powerful than bullets.
Leo could always make people believe anything she says--really believe. When her chest burns and the words come from her mouth, her targets' eyes glaze over, they forget their own thoughts, and they'll do anything she says. It's what keeps her alive after being on the run and living on the streets for years. But after using it on her girlfriend and her dad's drug dealer, it's also what got her here on the streets in the first place.
Then Sleepwater finds her. When Leo discovers there are others out there with similar powers, scattered across the country, she can't say no to the underground organization. After all, what's a little sit-down with the only people who may ever understand her? What she doesn't expect is to be thrust into Sleepwater's guerrilla war, hunted by government agencies, and used as a weapon. Worse than that, she might be more valuable not for what she can do but for who she was before they found her.
