Opis

Sarah is a smart, talented, and very cheerful young lady. Shortly after birth, she was whisked away from a very strange and mysterious village by her mother. Sarah moves into a more normal life with her mother in a big city, but her mother quickly discovers that Sarah is more than meets the eye. Sarah starts to excel in her classes quite rapidly and begins competing in scientific contests, racking up a nice bank account.

After graduating from high school, Abby, Sarah's mother, decides to enroll her in a university not too far from the city they live in. It's Sarah's first real time away from home, but she fits in rather nicely with her roommates, shy and quiet Zammie along with energetic and vocal Katie. They attend classes together, hang out together, and even compete in contests together, all while completing degrees and pursuing what each of them love doing. At one point, they break off and do something completely crazy; they combine their funds and build a mansion to live in

All is well until Sarah's mother decides to tell Sarah about her past and the village she came from. This casts a dark shadow over Sarah as she ponders how she might find out more about the current state of the village. But the health of her mother and the graduate studies of her two good friends keeps Sarah from venturing anywhere near the old village until years later.

Sarah finds the village deserted, so she decides to pen down the words that her mother had told her about the place, when the place suddenly lights up around her. Some old residents have come back to build something fantastic in place of the old village. Sarah, desirous to see their plans come to an unsuccessful end, puts herself into their confidence and agrees to assist them when asked.

Come on a fun, mysterious and whirlwind adventure as Sarah slowly discovers what they are up to. What does she do when something goes wrong? Can Sarah escape her own lottery?
