All of Nic’s dreams have come true at last.

After years of living in hiding as a Remarkable in the Unremarkable world, Nic has everything she’d ever wanted: a big family, a forever home (in the magical city of Uhuru!), and, finally, a chance to learn the Gift at Manifestor school. And she’s hailed as a hero after finding the Msaidizi, a long-lost ancient magical weapon.

So life is perfect, right?

Well, except that her favorite author wants her dead, and a terrifying secret prophecy threatens her future. And Nic still can’t wield the Gift like other twelve-year-old Manifestors, which scares her. But then a bizarre encounter makes these problems seem as serious as a stubbed toe. She’s given a deadly ultimatum: Find the Book of Anansi or put her family’s life in peril. There’s just one tiny complication: Not only does no one know where the book is—they don’t even believe it exists…

Nic must team up again with her twin brother, Alex, and her BFF, J.P., to complete this impossible mission—or risk losing it all.
