Robert Gorham always gets what he wants. But the power of persuasion is as potent a blessing as it is a curse.
Robert is alone until a group of strangers who can do impossible things—produce flames without flint, conduct electricity with their hands, and see visions of the past—welcome him. They call themselves Unusuals and they give Robert a new name too: Damien.
Finally, finally he belongs. As long as he can keep his power under control.
But control is a sacrifice he might not be willing to make.

Praise for A Neon Darkness
“A deliciously dark, genre-bending look at the thrill and danger of intoxicating power. Shippen creates a world—and a family—that you'd do just about anything to be a part of.”—Charlotte Nicole Davis, author of The Good Luck Girls
“Shippen combines an exciting plot with diverse characters . . . This may be the best Bright Sessions content yet as well as an excellent starting point for those unfamiliar with this world. A creative and compelling read.”—Kirkus Reviews
“A rich cast of secondary characters and gripping plot twists keep readers interested until the last page. Damien’s use of control to gain human connection and its moral implications will make readers question how far are they willing to go to get everything they desire. The story will leave readers thinking long after the last page is read.”—School Library Journal
