Description
When Dusty gets the phone call from a mysterious boy she knows she can't ignore it. He seemed to know something about the disappearance of her brother Josh, which means that Dusty must find the boy no matter what.
But when she does finally meet him, there's something strange and haunting about him. He can see people's thoughts, and feels everything - from chilling ice to white-hot pain... and he seems to have a hold over everyone he meets.
There's talk in the town of the boy's past. Lynch mobs are out to get him. Dusty must help him and find out what happened to Josh. But when the mob turns on her, it is she, and not the boy, who is in the gravest danger...
