When she graduated out of foster care, she reconnected with her brother Gabe in the town of Haven Springs, Colorado. Alex arrived in Haven Springs hoping to reunite with her brother but found more than just family. When Gabe died in a mining accident, Alex partnered with Gabe’s friends and used her powers to find justice. As the truth unraveled, Alex grew close to – and began dating – Steph Gingrich.

It was on the road they met troubled teenager, Lily. Discovering Lily had run away from home, Alex and Steph decided to help the teenager unravel the anguish of her powers – the ability to take others’ memories – until the only past left to confront was her own…
