With Gaia's graduation from high school, Pascal's best-selling series comes to an end...only to be reborn again. Can you feel the fear? Gaia learned what it's like to feel fear - and it wasn't pretty. Now, just in time for her last few weeks of high school, she's back to her normal, fearless self.

Gaia wants to call in the CIA, but it's risky: It means playing by a whole new set of rules.

If Gaia can find a way to realign with Tom, Natasha, Ed, and even Tatiana, does she have a shot at being a "normal" girl?
