  Danu used to be have loads of friends and do well in school. But that was before her dad went on an archeological dig and packed her off to live with her workaholic lawyer aunt. Now, she's getting into trouble at school and feeling bored and lonely in her aunt's pristine but sterile flat. Everywhere Danu turns she feels that life is saying no to her ? so she's not going to make it easy for anyone around her. When a website search reveals that she is a Zodiac Girl, Danu is skeptical, but her zodiac guardians keep her busy ? learning how to cook, taking a self-defence class and redecorating her aunt's flat. As the weeks go by, Danu realizes that she has to take responsibility for her happiness ? as when fate hands you a difficult card it's how you play it that counts.
