Only Faith seems able to connect the dots to a new designer drug infiltrating her high school.<br \/>\nBut when her investigation puts the people she loves in danger, she will have to confront her hidden past and use her newfound gifts\u2014risking everything to save her friends and beloved town.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\t\t<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">\n{\n\t\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\n\t\"@type\":\"Review\",\n\t\"datePublished\": \"2021-02-01T11:00:02+00:00\",\n\t\"description\": \"Happy February!\\r\\n\\r\\n\\r\\n\\r\\n\\r\\n\\r\\nToday's post is all about my favorite covers for the second half of 2020!
