Atlantis Rising

An engrossing fantasy about the descendants of Atlantis, and the one girl who could save or destroy them all.

Tabitha has perfected the art of invisibility. Nondescript clothes, no friends to speak of, good grades — but not so good that she would stand out. After graduation she is going to pack up her junkyard car, pocket the wad of cash she'd earned over the years, and disappear.

It's not because she isn't happy. Far from it — she loves her family, doesn't mind Las Vegas (despite the inherent issues that come with pale skin and a desert climate), and would actually like to go to college. But it would be too dangerous for her to stay. Because Tabitha isn't normal. She's a Dewing, part of a superhuman species descending from the original inhabitants of Atlantis. The Dewing grow up and attend college, but they don’t grow old and they have special abilities that allow them to erase memories, see the future, and more.

Tabitha’s senior year quickly becomes a mess of complicated when she literally runs into a new student, Brice. There's something different about him. Special. And it shouldn't be a huge surprise when she discovers that he is a Dewing as well. And that the entire Dewing community is looking for her. They believe that she is the key in a centuries old war between two factions of the Dewing society — a war that forces Tabitha to choose between her human world and the Dewing community.
