It swears he’ll find help there. It’s bad enough to have hallucinations, but doing what they say is bound to lead to disaster. Isn’t it? ***** In the quirky small town of Tassamara, Florida, everyone's got psychic abilities. Or almost everyone. Grace Latimer is the only one in her family who doesn't.

Well, that, and a little assistance from the rest of the town. Featuring Dillon, Rose, Akira, and the rest of the Latimer family, plus the long-awaited return of Henry!
