Samenvatting:

Lizzy Ballard was born with an extraordinary ability, and while she tries to hide it, others seek to control it. Who will win this deadly zero-sum game?

When Lizzy Ballard’s parents discover the damage she can do with her mind, they hide her away, trying to save her from life as a human lab rat—and trying to save others from her power. But they can’t hide her forever.

When tragedy tears her family apart, Lizzy learns just how deadly her ability is, and how dangerous her life has become. Hunted by a shadowy organization that will turn her power to its own ends no matter the cost, she’s forced to leave behind everything she’s ever known, with only her nerve and a few unlikely allies between her and the people hunting her. And the more she learns, the more she realizes there may be others like her.

ROCK PAPER SCISSORS is the gripping first novel in Matty Dalrymple’s Lizzy Ballard thriller series—a story of ruthless ambition, the terrible things done in its name, and the makeshift family that stands in its way. For readers of Stephen King’s Firestarter who like a young heroine with a power she never asked for, this is where Lizzy’s fight to escape the clutches of those who would control her starts. The game has begun, and the stakes have never been higher.
