About this ebook

DeDe Mercer is a Radiant who can control other people’s thoughts, make them do what she wants. For years she’s controlled her power, keeping her secret, never using it on anyone--until the day she had no choice.

Now the government is after her, after her brother, too, because he’ll come into his power before long. The Department of Energy, the Defense Intelligence Agency, Homeland Security--they all want her, and they’re willing to do anything, hurt anyone, kill if necessary, to make her their weapon.

But DeDe has had enough. They think she’s a weapon? Fine. They’re about to find out how right they are.

“Reads like a cross between Stranger Things and Sense 8. Unique plot and engaging cast of characters. Radiants is a fun ride that grabbed me and didn't let go. Looking forward to the next book!" -- Patricia Briggs, #1NYT best selling author of the Mercy Thompson and Alpha and Omega books

“(RADIANTS is) controversial, nail-biting, edge-of-my-seat excitement." --Faith Hunter, NYT and USA Today bestselling author of the Jane Yellowrock series

“As gripping as its ideas about selfhood, identity and privacy are urgent, RADIANTS is a psychological thrill-ride through dangers physical and conceptual. Serious fun. " -- AJ Hartley, NY Times bestselling author of IMPERVIOUS and STEEPLEJACK

Radiants are people with the right genetics that give them special powers that usually manifest around puberty or so. (Think X-MEN mutants). People with powers could be useful to the government and dangerous on their own. When 16-year-old DeDe uses her hidden power, everything goes sideways as agents from various agencies try to get their hands on her and her younger brother, Miles, because he might have the right genetics to eventually develop powers, too. The two siblings are great characters. I really liked them. I also really liked DeDe's best friend, Kyle, who is nonbinary. They had a very strong relationship. I'm glad that DeDe's mom was as open-minded as DeDe.
