Certified to bring tagged people back from the dead, Anna knows responsibility. So when Millicent, local school bully, approaches Anna to raise Millicent's boyfriend Victor, Anna does the right thing: she refuses. Victor has no tag.
But now? Millicent's steaming mad, and willing to risk anything--and everything--to get her revenge.
Anna better watch out. This probably won't end well.
A sassy little story about the consequences of overstretching our limits--and a warning against thinking we always know best.
