In a modern world where certain humans awaken mysterious powers and are ranked as Arbiters, seventeen-year-old Cal Everene has only two talents—obsessing over curves and underachieving at everything else. Born in a rough neighborhood and raised by a tireless single mom, Cal has always felt like a nobody. No power. No status. No chance. Until the night everything changed. In a violent encounter and in a bid to save Rebecca Hangston—the stunning cheerleader he’s long admired, Cal’s power awakens—not with a bang, but with a theft. A bat, snatched from an attacker’s grip and pulled towards Cal from across the space. Strange. Unpredictable. And dangerous.
Cal begins to unravel the truth of his ability; an evolving power that lets him steal objects, space, maybe more. He’s thrown headfirst into the secret world of Arbiters, where strength means survival, and weakness is a death sentence. Guided by the seductive and mysterious Selene Virelle, a powerful Arbiter with her own shadowy motives, Cal begins training to control his gift, though her tight clothes and teasing glances don’t exactly help his focus. But the world of Arbiters is far from fair.
Dark factions rise. Secrets brew beneath the government’s polished surface. Prisons exist for rogue Arbiters. And somewhere deep within Cal, his power of Theft begins to stir with a hunger of its own.
He doesn’t summon power.
He doesn’t create.
He takes.
And the world is full of things worth stealing.
