Synopsis[]
Sophie Foster is a young, twelve year old girl who has had mysterious abilities since she was five. Keeping it a secret, Sophie had to suffer everyday listening to everybody's thoughts at once, many harsh thoughts on herself included. She would listen to music with her earbuds from her iPod to block out the voices thrown at her.
But everything changes the day she meets a teal-eyed boy claiming the name Fitz, who proves that he knows her secrets. Fitz shows her that she does belong somewhere—and staying with her family in the human world will bring grave danger to them. All of a sudden, Sophie has no choice but to leave the life she knows behind and start a new one in the Lost Cities—a hidden world vastly different from her own.
Sophie has to relearn every bit of information she thought she knew correctly, and learn how to live in her new lifestyle. Including how to handle those who weren't as excited about her returning "home".
As time passes, Sophie realizes that there are secrets buried deep in her mind—secrets some will do anything for.
Even kill.
In this thrilling story that pushes you to the edge of your seat, Shannon Messenger writes about a young girl who's yet to figure out why she's the solution to her brand-new world, before the wrong person does.
Keeper of the Lost Cities: Exile was the second book to be released in Shannon Messenger’s KotLC series. It was released on October 1, 2013.

Sophie Elizabeth Foster is the main protagonist in the Keeper of the Lost Cities series. All of the books except for a few parts of Unlocked are from her perspective. Some of her titles include that she is a member of the Black Swan and a Regent for the Council on Team Valiant. Between her training with the Black Swan, bouts with the Neverseen, and missions for Team Valiant, she attends Foxfire Academy and lives with the Ruewens, her adoptive parents. She also searches out the truth about her past and purpose, which are shrouded in mystery – in particular, the identity of her biological father, as Sophie later discovers that Councillor Oralie is, in fact, her biological mother.
Keefe Sencen (pronounced Keef Sense-in) is a member of the Black Swan and a former member of the Neverseen. He joined the Neverseen as a double agent in an attempt to infiltrate it and tear it down from the inside, as well as to sneak information to the Black Swan. His middle name on his registry pendant record is redacted, although he dubs it "I'm-not-your-legacy-boy". This shows that either he doesn't like his middle name, he's embarrassed about it, or it reminds him too much of painful memories (or Ro will tease him endlessly when she finds out about it.)
