Maxine Shepard knows nothing of her legacy and what she was. She never liked moving out of Manhattan to the small town of Haven in Alabama. Her relationship with her mother was going through a rough patch. She did not even know about her grandmother until then.

Her mother kept a lot of secrets from her and she discovered them a week before she turned eighteen. A lot of people are after her and she does not even know why she seemed to be very valuable to them. She finds new friends, the prospect of a love life, and finds her true identity, and a prophecy that is yet to be fulfilled.
