The main character, Cassel Sharpe, lives with a family of workers. Workers are people who, with just a touch, can change or alter your physical or mental state. There are seven different types of workers; dream, memory, luck, death, physical, transformation, and emotional. Cassel thinks he’s not a worker but later on figures out that he is one.

Cassel begins to sleepwalk and ends up on the roof. He states that, in a dream, a white cat took his tongue. The head mistress tells him he is a heath issue and kicks him out of his school, Wallingford. His brother Phillip comes to pick him up. He stays with Phillip and then goes with his granddad. He then helps his granddad clean the house, and that’s where he meets the white cat.

Granddad, with the help of Philip and Barron, Cassel’s other brother, manage to capture the white cat and take her to the pound. However, Cassel does not like that and gets her back with the help of two friends, Sam and Daneca. He later on turns her back into Lila, a girl he thought he killed when he was younger. Cassel wants to tell Lila he loves her but he is afraid to.

Anton, a friend of Barron’s, want Cassel, Barron, and Philip help him try to kill Lila’s father, so he can be the head of the Zacharov family. Cassel goes to the party where Lila’s dad, Zacharov, will be and fakes everything and in the process of faking it, Anton dies.

After all of that, Cassel return to school and when he gets home that night Lila is in his room. Unfortunately, Cassel loves Lila and she said that she loves him too, but his mom worked her because she is an emotional worker. Now he can barely look at Lila.

I recommend this book to upper grade because it has romance and action.
