Join Ava Connor on her dark journey through the world of the supernatural...
Haunted by her past, 25-year-old Avalene “Ava” Connor drowns herself in work to keep her mind from wandering to those dark places that threaten to consume her whole. But even the most hardened soul has a breaking point, and Ava inches closer and closer to the edge with every passing hour. Then, one day, she meets a mysterious group of people that makes her question everything she knows, and once again, Ava’s world is turned completely upside down.
She learns about Alteri, supernatural beings that have been living among humans for ages. According to Alteri legend, Ava is believed to be the key in finding a rogue Alteri, who is leaving nothing but a trail of broken bodies in his wake. Now, Ava can either turn a blind eye to what is right before her, or she can accept the truth, and help bring down the rogue Alteri—even if it means sacrificing her own life.
This is urban fantasy at its finest. The plot is fast-paced and hard to put down. Ava is a strong and independent main character willing to do anything to protect her friends and family. The side characters are complex enough that you won't see the end coming until it hits you.
I would recommend this to anyone who enjoyed "A Discovery of Witches" or the Sookie Stackhouse Series.
