Five kids across Europe disappear in one night, never to be heard from again.  A few years, later five teenagers show up in New York at a party and will soon attend the best high school there.  Their governess Madame Vileroy is not as she appears to the outside world.  She gives the teens special abilities that raise them to the top of their class in different ways.   But for each “gift” she gives there is a cost.  One teen ”steals,” one “cheats,” one “hides,” one “is made beautiful,” and the last “lies;” however, these “gifts” are not as we would assume.  Three Faust teens are keeping a big secret from the other two.  Filled with intrigue, double dealing, and devilish acts, this book shows some historical figures as very naughty.  The main question I asked myself was “who is Madame Vileroy” and about half way in my suspicions were confirmed, but I was hooked to the story and I’m so glad I finished it because I didn’t see part of the ending coming and can’t wait for the sequel.   If you like supernatural types of books this one is a must for you.
