Description

JESS MASTRIANI
was dubbed "Lightning Girl" by the press when she developed a psychic ability to find missing children after she was struck by lightning during a huge storm. Now Jess has lost her miraculous powers...or at least she would like the media and the government to think so. All she wants is to be left alone.

But it doesn't look like Jess is going to get her wish -- especially not while working at a summer camp for musically gifted kids. When the father of a missing girl shows up to beg Jess to find his daughter, Jess can't say no. Now the Feds are on her tail again, as is one ornery stepdad, who'd like to see Lightning Girl...well, dead.

Kliatt Cabot, author of The Princess Diaries,...creates yet another outstanding YA character and a compelling, contemporary plot in this intriguing second book.
SLJ [Cabot]...tells the story in the irreverent and slang-peppered language of today's teenagers....[T]he protagonist is a character that [readers] will believe and enjoy. The story moves fast and is full of suspense, action and teen intrigue. Readers who enjoyed the first book will not be disappointed, and newcomers will not be left far behind.
Children's Literature Introduces the reader to a savvy teen with a heart as big as her mouth...
Kliatt A true find
