Opis

They call her sensitive, fragile, quiet. But that's just the surface.When Raymond and Melanie adopt a shy, seemingly strange girl named Lisa, no one suspects how much their lives are about to change. Lisa rarely speaks about herself-yet her eyes seem to see worlds hidden from others. Her new brother, Prince, senses it first: something about her is different. Gentler. Deeper. And sometimes unsettling.Lisa reacts to emotions as if they were tidal waves. She senses fear before it's even spoken. She comforts without knowing how. And one day, she touches a dying man-and brings him back.What initially appears to be sensitivity soon becomes a truth greater than the family is willing to accept: Lisa is no ordinary child. She is a Crystal Child-a being whose consciousness transcends the limits of humanity. And she is not of this world.While Prince tries to protect her, others learn about her: a reporter searching for answers, a shadowy organization collecting what it doesn't understand, and beings who have lived among humans for millennia-the Annunaki.A race begins between science and faith, memory and forgetting, possession and freedom.A novel about perception, solidarity, and the quiet power that sometimes awakens in a single child.
