Mila Hunt

She can bend the will of others, controlling people like puppets — and she has hidden this dangerous gift her entire life. But there are those from whom even her most important secret cannot be hidden. An ordinary evening with... friends turns into a nightmare for seventeen-year-old Mila Hunt: an accusation of murder, blackmail, abduction by special services... Now the girl is forced to work for a secret organization. There is no choice: serve the government's goals — or betray a friend and end up in prison. The familiar city, divided into the prosperous Center and the Periphery closed off from the rest of the residents, reveals itself to Mila from another side. Danger lurks at every turn, and reality proves to be more astonishing than the wildest guesses.
