Zechariah Rush 6

About

Zechariah Rush leaves his old life behind to transfer to a new college, hoping for a fresh start and a chance to reconnect with his lifelong friend, Ember Roberson. But peace doesn’t last long. When his roommate, Gus Fletcher, is brutally attacked and left fighting for his life, something darker begins to unfold on campus. After waking from his coma, Gus delivers a chilling revelation: the people who hurt him aren’t outsiders, they’re students. Students with powers. As Ember begins acting distant, fearful, and desperate to push Zechariah away, he realizes she knows more than she’s saying. The truth forces Zechariah to confront the secret he’s hidden since childhood: at ten years old, he discovered he could command wind, fire, water, earth, and electricity. He swore never to use his abilities again. But as rival factions of powered students emerge, violence spreads across campus, and the line between protector and weapon blurs, Zechariah must decide who he is willing to become. To save Ember, protect Gus, and stop a catastrophe in the making, Zechariah may have to embrace the very power he’s spent his life running from.
