Kirsten Turner is a normal girl. Well, at least until her best friend shows her a secret world that she had never even dreamed of, along with a boy that doesn't seem to know what the word 'nice' means. And to add to that, an enemy race is threatening their very survival? Great, thanks for the information. But when her best friend goes missing, and things get crazier and more dangerous than ever, it's a race against time to find her friend . . . before time runs out.
