Eighteen-year-old clairvoyant Blake Wilder stumbles across the body of a beautiful young woman outside The Lower 8, a nightclub exclusively for those with paranormal abilities. All evidence points to club owner Jessie McCabe as the killer, but Blake's desire to discover the truth about the man who has gotten under her skin is complicated by the arrival of her younger sister, Jordan, a girl devastated to learn the hard way that paranormal abilities run in families.

Adding to Blake's growing worries is the absence of boyfriend Nicholas Thorne, who returned to Alder House—the ancestral home of the ancient society just outside of London—only to vanish from her life without a trace. An urgent phone call from Nicholas's ex lures Blake away from Jessie and Jordan—and straight into the crosshairs of some of the most treacherous and powerful Nines at Alder House.

In a story packed with romance, intrigue, and magic, Blake will be forced to fight for the truth, her life, and the future of all those she loves.

A native of Los Angeles, Kes Trester's first job out of college was on a film set, though the movie's title will remain nameless because it was a really bad film. Really. As a feature film development executive, she worked on a variety of independent films, from gritty dramas (guns and hotties) to steamy vampire love stories (fangs and hotties) to teens-in-peril genre movies (blood and hotties). Kes produced a couple of independent films, both award-winners on the festival circuit, before segueing into television commercials. As head of production for a Hollywood-based film company, she supervised the budgeting and production of nationally broadcast commercials (celebrities, aliens, talking animals!) and award-winning music videos for artists such as Radiohead, Coldplay, and OKGO (more celebrities, aliens, and talking animals!). Kes' contemporary novels are cinematic, fast-paced, and above all, fun. Her well-received debut novel, the young adult boarding school thriller A Dangerous Year, has been optioned for film/television. She is a four-time Pitch Wars mentor and an SCBWI Susan Alexander Grant award winner. When she's not writing, she can usually be found in the company of an understanding husband, a couple of college-age kids, and a pack of much-loved rescue dogs.

Justine Eyre has turned her passion for reading and remarkable facility with accents into her dream career. This classically trained, multilingual actress has narrated well over 400 audiobooks and has been honored to receive a coveted Audie Award and multiple AudioFile Earphones Awards. Appearing in leading roles onstage in King Lear and The Crucible, she has also graced the screen in Two and Half Men and Mad Men amongst her many television credits.
