From tragedy comes destiny. 

Cassidy is a 17-year-old girl being raised by her father in San Diego, California. Her existence is a mixed blessing, full of life but burdened with the knowledge that her mother died while giving birth to her. Her mother’s absence constantly weighs on her mind, but she trusts her loving father to protect her like he’s always done. Until the day that she discovers the truth. 

Cassidy is a Behesian - born with dark magic and the ability to do extraordinary things - and it was her mother’s parting gift to her. She’s not the only one out there and her dark gift makes her the strongest one alive. However, her father has kept her talents a secret, but not for her peace of mind. 

He works for The Brotherhood, a secretive organization that tracks and studies supernatural people...and his daughter is the perfect test subject. She finally realizes the crucial decision she faces: either stay with her father, the only family she’s ever known - or join her new Behesian brethren in the ultimate fight for survival. 

Behesian is a thrilling young adult novel about the choices we make and who we really are. Author Isaiyan Morrison crafts this compelling tale of self-discovery against a backdrop of magic, wonder, and fate. Because when the true meaning of family gets lost between the lines, sometimes the only way forward...is through your heart.
