Publisher Description

My name is Chloe Saunders. I'm fifteen, and I would love to be normal.

But normal is one thing I'm not.

For one thing, I'm having these feelings for a certain antisocial werewolf and his sweet-tempered brother—who just happens to be a sorcerer—but, between you and me, I'm leaning toward the werewolf.

Not normal.

My friends and I are also on the run from an evil corporation that wants to get rid of us—permanently.

Definitely not normal.

And finally, I'm a genetically altered necro-mancer who can raise the dead, rotting corpses and all, without even trying.

As far away from normal as it gets.

"This was better than the other two in this trilogy. I enjoyed the suspense and was really rotting for the characters. My only complaint is that the ending was left too open. There are still issues that weren't resolved. I like a nice clean ending with very few questions left and this didn't do that. However, the characters were great! They felt like they could be real people to me. Especially Derek. Chloe was fun to watch her evolve and grow into herself."

  • “This nail-biting climax to the series continues to captivate readers with its edge-of-one’s-seat pacing. Armstrong’s story is full of action, romance, deception, and intrigue as well as complex characters and serious teenage issues. A satisfying addition for fans of the supernatural.”

About Kelley Armstrong

Kelley Armstrong is the author of young adult fiction, paranormal romance, urban fantasy, and mysteries in stand-alone novels and over fifteen series.

She sucks at all of them. She has also crawled through very shallow cave systems and climbed half a mountain before chickening out.
