The sequel to HUMAN SPINES, a 2016 Wattys winner! It's been seven months since the Opaque struck the desert and ravaged the Demon's caverns. Seven months since the Reaper-Mother gave up. Seven month since Dumaine last spoke to Emmeline. Seven months since Hans died. Huddled in a house perched on the crest of a mountain so remote only Demon's come to visit, Dumaine has come to learn a simple lifestyle. Expect nothing (except the daily drop ins from rampaging gangs of bloodthirsty Translucent), and accept everything (especially the learning opportunities provided by the aforementioned Translucent's resulting corpses). But while time seems to have frozen for Dumaine as he waits for Emmeline, it lurks forward beyond their snowy alps, creeping toward the shadow of the Opaque's threats until one evening they find five human strangers hidden in their home. And one of them is dead.

**Wattys 2016 Winner!** Fifteen-year-old Emmeline Jefferson doesn't have time away from the Demons. Not a minute to say goodbye to her family, not a moment to wonder "Why me?" Every second she's not possessed is spent begging stranger after stranger for help. But no one believes a sporadic girl who claims Demons have spent more time in her body than she has. No one until she finds Dumaine. Dumaine Chartres's whole life fits in his accordion case, his friends are nonexistent, and this fascinating girl is telling him Demons exist. These things all make perfect sense. What he doesn't understand is why humans have such outrageous issues with murder. Death is natural. If he wasn't supposed to kill anyone, they wouldn't have died. Nobody even noticed the bodies anyway. In return for a break from his internal demons, Dumaine offers Emmeline help, and she's willing to receive it from anyone. Maybe this boy can finally be the keeper she needs. Maybe chasing these Demons can explain why he's so different from everyone else. Maybe this friendship can work. With a wise but demented old man, and enough determination to perturb the Demons, Emmeline and Dumaine concoct a plan to unriddle their lives. The first step is to confront the Demon's creator. But something else seems to have found the creator first. And it only looks like an Angel. Human Spines is part one of a YA dark Urban Fantasy written in a style similar to Tahereh Mafi's Shatter Me and Elana Johnson's Possession. It's the first of a series and told from the viewpoints of Emmeline, Dumaine, and their rambling but wise navigator, Hans. Through a diverse cast, it explores themes of learned distrust, fear of the unknown, and the battle against the evil inside us all, in a way similar to a Studio Ghibli film. Cover by ecclesia-
