Rejecting
her father’s master plan for her life, sixteen-year old Alyssia Barrett faces
the world alone.
"Lyssa, it is your destiny."
Her father did not use those exact words, but he might as well have.
Lyssa Barrett was born into a family of writers.
Few authors have landed more titles on national bestseller lists than has her father. Her oldest brother walks in his father’s footsteps, her second brother is a published poet, and the third a Broadway playwright. The four men, the “Barrett Band,” as they are called, are a force in American literary circles, the “first family of American letters.”
