What happens in Anna to the Infinite Power from start to finish, spoilers included, with a timeline of 15 key events. The opening is below; the full summary is a 3-minute read.
Spoilers ahead
Anna Hart is a twelve-year-old from Flemington, New Jersey, who attends a school for gifted children. She is a true prodigy, yet her brilliance comes with a stubborn streak: she can be a clever kleptomaniac who teases her teachers, and she endures headaches when she fixates on fires or flickering lights. Her nights are haunted by strange, prophetic dreams that hint at something larger lurking behind her family’s history. When a piano teacher named Michaela Dupont moves in next door, Anna’s world begins to tilt even more. Michaela has been watching Anna closely and keeps photos of her—and of a lookalike girl from 1970—tied to a past that seems to echo in the present.
