The main charcter is Jem, a foster child from London. When she was eight her mother overdosed and died. After that day she was able to see the death dates of every person when she looked into their eyes. as she got older she learned how to control and use her ability to help her friend Spider. Spider is set to die soon, though jem has no idea why only how.

This story is set in modern day England. Our characters adventures from the Thames to the Moorsfeild.

I highly recommend this book. It's high sense of adventure, when Spider and Jem ran away from London and were being chased by the police. And its supernatural aspect of Jem being able to read the day someone dies. This novel is jam packed with excitment!
