Last year, Teddy Cannon discovered she was psychic. This
year, her skills will be put to the test as she investigates
a secretive case that will take her far from home—and deep
into the past in the thrilling follow-up to
School for Psychics.With trepidation, Teddy
enters her second year at The Whitfield Institute, a
facility hidden off the coast of San Francisco where
students master telepathy and telekinesis, investigative
techniques and SWAT tactics for covert roles in government
service. She has been obsessively tracking the movements of
the Patriot Corps, a secret organization that seems to be
behind a string of crimes on US soil—including the
disappearance of her friend, Molly. She is not sure who she
can trust with her findings: her friends think she is crazy
and her teachers insist she focus on her schoolwork. Teddy tries to do what she is told. She tries to forget
about her missing friend, her long lost birth parents, her
rivalry with other students, even her forbidden romance with
an instructor. She learns to be a meat shield: a Secret
Service operative trained to protect whatever dummy they
throw her way. She learns to disarm explosive devices. She
also learn to transport herself through time, as she begins
to grasp astral travel (that is, if she doesn’t get lost in
the time-space continuum). But Teddy has never been good at
following the rules. So when an unexpected assignment leads
her to the answers she’s chased for so long, and reveal a
clue about her own past, she takes a risk that puts everyone
else she cares about in danger. The next book in the series that Kirkus Reviews
called “Harry Potter with a cast of millennials,” K.C.
Archer’s The Astral Traveler's Daughter is a
heart-racing novel set in a world very much like our own—but
there is more to this place than meets the eye.
