Discover the newest mystery in the Giftedverse series with First Life a supernatural coming-of-age novel from YA author Amanda Lynn Petrin.

Alison Carmichael has her future lined up, from taking care of her sister to the job waiting for her at her dad’s firm once she graduates. But when she discovers she has a supernatural Gift – of reliving memories by touching objects – it puts everything she thought she knew into question. Including her budding romance with Tristan Davis, a mysterious and swoonworthy out-of-towner.

Instead of going to California with her family, Alison takes a summer internship solving cold cases at her local precinct, where Dr. Graciela Goncalves promises to teach her to control her Gift. As Alison learns more about this new world and her place within it, she finds herself working on more current cases and biting off more than she can chew.

When those closest to her turn up as victims, can Alison put the pieces together and solve the puzzle before it’s too late?

Find out in this ‘magical adventure that intertwines romance and mystery’!
