Freak. Ugly. Jaimie Murphy and her friend, Bennie, have been called all sorts of names.
What their classmates don't know is that she and Bennie can read minds and can make the other students believe whatever they want ? temporarily ? a talent Jaimie sometimes uses to amuse herself at the expense of her enemies.
However, when strange Shadows start threatening them, she's the first one to realize that lives are in danger ? friends and enemies alike.
Aided by Bennie and her friend Katelyn, she follows the clues given to her by a strange ghost who she calls Disco Dude. At the end, she discovers her courage and her true heritage after being accused of murder.
