Alex is a 17-year-old girl recovering from a recent near-death experience. She's been forced into a strange new world where she discovers that the age-old folktales and myths of magical creatures are actually true, though not quite as accurate as she would have thought. These creatures live among us, and as a newly- changed vampire, she is now one of them. Alex has always struggled with depression, neglect, and isolation that have defined her identity, and now make it difficult for her to ever feel "normal." She makes friends with other magical beings that give her the strength to face her inner demons and provide her with a sense of belonging and the willpower she may need to face off against a group of political extremists from shifting the balance of humanity. Should she fail, humanity's existence will be in jeopardy and she could be lost forever.
