Told from the perspective of three seemingly unconnected teenagers,
Called Upon steers the adolescent reader through a series of twists
and turns that merge together with jaw-dropping results. Kaitlin,
the social pariah of her high school, is so relieved to have made
friends at Camp Overlook that she is willing to look past the
camp's anomalies: creepy counselors, 24-hour video surveillance,
and campers disappearing quietly into the night. Dr. Forsythe, the
mastermind behind the Overlook experiment, explains that Kaitlin
has a genetic gift-one which laid dormant until her stay at summer
camp. Having never considered herself normal, let alone special,
Kaitlin is dazzled to have an ability with world-changing
implications. After a terrifying warning from Dr. Forsythe's
embittered son and then discovering a dead body in the doctor's
walk-in freezer, Kaitlin must decide whether to embrace her new
gift and follow Dr. Forsythe or use her gift to defeat the very
system from which it was created. By the end, readers come away
from Called Upon feeling surprised and exhilarated, they will also,
like Kaitlin, leave with a new understanding of their own intrinsic
worth and limitless potential.
