Summary

Goth girl Jenna Kelley can read minds, the ultimate tool for rebellion. But when her alcoholic mother is hospitalised, a stranger claiming to be her long-lost dad appears, promising a fresh start. A real parent, a normal life – it sounds too good to be true.

Her gifted classmates think so, but Jenna is so determined to have a real parent around and ignores her powerful intuition. Her gift for truth might be useless if her heart refuses to listen...

Perfect for young readers who enjoy a mix of school drama and paranormal adventure, this light-hearted action-adventure series was adapted into a hit CBBC television drama in 2025.
