While constantly cursing, she distances herself from everyone. She is stubborn and seemingly hates everything and everyone. Jem must be one of the most pessimistic protagonists. As she explores this new friendship and the trouble it brings, she must carry the burden of knowing when he will die, and sadly, that date is depressingly soon. Since the day her mother died, Jem has been in the foster system, constantly changing homes until, one day, she makes a friend. Jem discovered that the numbers she saw on her mother matched the date of her mother’s death. When Jem was six, her mother died from a drug overdose.
The numbers were an 8 digit combination only she could see and she only later discovered what they meant. For as long as she has known, Jem has seen people’s numbers. This book takes place in London during the Year 2010. Rachel Ward’s Num8ers is the first book in the Numbers trilogy.
