This text provides excerpts from the novel "The Summoning," the first book in the Darkest Powers series by Kelley Armstrong. The narrative focuses on Chloe Saunders, a fifteen-year-old girl placed in a group home called Lyle House after experiencing hallucinations, which she is medicated for and diagnosed as schizophrenia. The sections reveal Chloe's interactions with other residents, particularly Simon and Derek (two non-blood brothers with mysterious backgrounds) and Rae (who is cynical about the facility), as well as the nurses and doctors who manage the home. A central element of the plot is Chloe's growing realization that she is a necromancer—someone who can see and talk to the dead—and that Lyle House is not a normal facility but a place for supernatural teens who are unknowingly subjects of darker research.
