Often the colour of her hair matches her emotional state: when she's happy her hair turns a vibrant pink or yellow, but when she is upset her hair will turn a stormy grey or black. Her parents love her no matter what. But others are interested in her for different reasons. Professor Malicient wants to use Camille as his research specimen and understand her genetic makeup.
Under the threat of the evil Professor, Camille is left to grow up with a travelling circus. Life in the circus is fun for Camille, but outside of their shelter, people laugh at her unusual gift.
Can she accept herself and overcome the threat that follows behind her at every step?
