Tekst achterflap

Lena always feels more than others. She calls it feeling — the peace she loses in busy spaces, knowing that something is wrong before someone says something. She thinks everyone has that.

Then she meets Nikos. And feels a calmness that is pleasant but not hers.

Only later does she understand why.

Nikos is a telepath. With Lena, he does something he has never done before: he uses his gift to calm her down. Not out of malice — out of love, he says.

But love and control can look the same.

When Lena discovers the truth, she stays — but on her own terms. Because she too wears more than she thought. A gift that feels the truth of people for those who can speak for themselves. He sees what is behind the words.

A gift that can be dangerous.

A novel about love that becomes honest after a beginning that was not. About two people with gifts they learn to carry. And on the question that lies under everything:

Can you trust someone who has manipulated you — if he is the only one who is honest enough to admit it?
