Meet Jessica. She is 15, turning 16, and lives a pretty normal life. Well, as normal as you can get with a super-rich, over-protective father who believes your best friend is out to get you. When her 16th birthday comes, she's wishing for a nice, small celebration; her father acting caring for once, her friends with her the whole day, eating ice-cream until they feel sick, then lounging on the sofa watching films. But instead, her father decides to ruin this rose-tinted reverie with the news that he's dragging Jess along to a business event instead to dance with rich old men.
Jessica is devistated, but still, dreaded dance comes and goes, a thoroughly miserable affair. And that night, something extraordinary happens.
Follow Jess and her friends as they are whisked away into another world, a terrible war iminent. Will they be able to cope with the huge responsibility of stopping the fighting, or will they crumble under the pressure...?
