The Children of Hercules

Between her unstable parents, dysfunctional family life, and talent of finding herself in strange situations, Alice has always struggled with feeling insignificant and out of place in the world. More than anything she longs to find out why she doesn?t feel capable of being ?normal? and figure out if she will ever be good enough the way that she is. When Alice, her younger sister Nina, and adoptive parents move from Washington to California over the summer she meets a strange group of people who help her make sense of all the mysteries in her life and she discovers that not only was she never destined for an ordinary life but that being different means she has more power and value than she could have ever imagined.
