Calli is an ordinary girl, not very athletic, until one day at a track meet she feels odd, and suddenly becomes incredibly, unnaturally fast. A woman appears from nowhere and claims to be an Olympic recruiter. Before she knows it, Calli is on a plane heading to a training center ... but discovers quickly the truth is far from the path to the Olympics.
She is despised by her roommate and nearly everyone at this place, despite her newly awakened paranormal gifts. Various anomalies puzzle her teachers. Callie slowly learns the history and the rules of the Altered, people in a secretive society, divided into groups according to their gifts. When she is chosen for a pivotal mission, Calli is as stunned as everyone else. Especially because Chris, a leader among the students at the center, is both attracted to and repelled by her. The constantly mixed signals from everyone around her frustrate her. Then a mysterious woman appears and entrusts Calli with protecting a diamond unlike any other, and everything and everyone around Calli begin to change.
The question is if she will survive her dangerous mission, or betray these people who haven't exactly welcomed her among them with open arms.
