Publisher's Synopsis
Alyzon Whitestarr doesnt take after her musically talented father or her nocturnal, artistic mother. In fact, shes the most normal member of a very eccentric family until the day that an accident leaves her more unique than she ever could have dreamed. When she wakes from a coma after an accident suddenly colors are more vibrant. Her memory is flawless; but strangest of all is Alyzons sense of smell. She can smell peoples feelings, view flashes of their lives and perceive their essences. Her best friend smells of a comforting sea breeze. She registers her fathers contentment as the sweet scent of caramelised sugar. With Alyzons extrasensory perception comes intrigue and danger, as she discovers the dark secrets and hidden ambitions that threaten her family. In the end, being different might be less of a blessing than a curse.
