Publisher's Summary
This present day sci-fi story is about Roni Buchry, a young multiracial girl with dark skin, blue eyes…and the power of invisibility. She faces discrimination in her school. Her family’s retail business is plagued by an organized crime family that collects “insurance,” often brutally. Roni’s always been extraordinarily good at hiding, first in hide-and-seek as a child and later to avoid embarrassment.
Now, older, she and her brother begin to realize that what she actually has is a form of telepathy. She can’t read other people’s minds, or speak to them silently, or force her thoughts on theirs. All she can do is make other people “not notice” her. At first becoming invisible seems like a great way to hide from bullies—or her old boyfriend—but she slowly begins to realize that this ability will let her do far more. She even begins to wonder if she might be able to do something about the mob family that’s been holding her city in its thrall.
