Melody — Jo Michaels

Melody Acworth. Singer. Sensitive. Anorexic.

Attached to a piece of hate mail that's dropped a black shroud over her for several years, she can't see her true self in the mirror. She destroys herself a little more each day until Markaza arrives. Suddenly, Melody sees a new future. Something outside the realm of her mother's control. A chance to make a difference.

If Melody can't learn to love herself, the creature will win, and the world will fall to hate on 12/21/12.
