Robbie Forester is a normal girl who volunteers at a soup kitchen.  But when a homeless lady dies, Robbie gets a bracelet with magical powers.  There are other people who are connected to this bracelet.  She needs to find them and work together to stop Sheldon Gunn, the rich man who wants to kick out all of the poor businesses in Brooklyn. I liked this book because there was never a dull moment. It was very well thought out. It was exciting and it was an easy read.
