Publisher Description
Kaida Hutchenson isn't exactly psyched for the class trip to Carlsbad Caverns. Fourteen hours in a van with preppy jock Zeke Anderson and high school loner Joy Tallon? No, thank you.
But when a tragic and explosive accident turns the journey into a nightmare, Kaida would give anything to be back on the road. Stumbling at midnight through the unforgiving desert, Kaida, Zeke, and Joy take refuge in an abandoned cave . . . until the world goes from pitch black to blinding. The next thing Kaida knows, she's back home in California and everything is just as it was. Or is it?
Now Kaida must band together with Zeke and Joy in hopes of making it back to the reality she remembers . . . and surviving the one she's fallen into.
New York Times-bestselling author Faye Kellerman teams up for the first time with her teen daughter Aliza Kellerman to deliver this breathlessly suspenseful paranormal thriller.

Quotes
-
“Jenna Lamia’s voice provides just the right ingenuousness to Kaida as the 14-year-old stumbles around in a world in which everything is changed. Lamia makes Kaida’s confusion palpable and her suspicions reasonable.”
— AudioFile -
“Kaida’s narration of the events will keep readers’ interest as they feel her frustration and confusion. This is an ideal concept for a story that is smoothly paced through new romances, new friendships, and suspicious family members while dealing with the underworld trafficking of medicine that can become deadly.”
— School Library Journal -
“Fast-paced action will keep thriller fans reading.”
— Kirkus Reviews -
“Faye Kellerman is a master of adult mystery, and the action and plot twists will keep readers wanting to know more. Aliza Kellerman…will be an author to watch as she matures. The action is taut and gripping, and the paranormal twist is original.”

" I really liked this book.It was different and I liked the characters and the storyline :) "
— Bec, 2/12/2014 -
" The book had a very interesting story line, but I don't like books with such obvious political statements. I attribute the lack of overall subtlety to the fact that a teenager wrote it. If Aliza Kellerman writes another novel in ten years, I'll read it. "

" A compelling read on three teens who fall into a parallal world where Social Darwinism is the norm. "
— Kim, 11/12/2013 -
" This book is written by Faye and her high-school aged daughter. Directed toward a teenage audience for sure! "
— Reese, 10/18/2013 -
" An alternate universe? A parallel world? No doctors, no medicine, in these current days of national health care scares? Interesting concept, beginning grabs any age reader but the middle sounds more juvenile. Too bad - nice original concept that could have gone places. "
— Lyn, 7/8/2013 -
" This was a pretty good book. Not one I would usually pick out but it had an interesting storyline. "
— Woz, 8/31/2012 -
" I liked this book. It was actually pretty good. I judged the book by it's cover one day when I was in a public library and I was short on time, and I have to say it really surprised me! Very original "
— Lori, 7/26/2012 -
" i didn't think it was well written. the plot was interesting, but sometimes the author just didn't make the main character likeable and it caused me to just think," Why should i finish this if i don't care anymore?". So i didn't officially finish the book, partyly because it was MIA for a while. "

" Prism was a pretty good book...but I was disappointed with the ending. I feel like it ended too abruptly, and I don't know how everything is going to turn out. "
— Avalon, 10/14/2011 -
" Interesting concept, although the ending was blah, I was really hoping they'd do more with it. "
— Linzy, 9/17/2011 -
