When 17 year old Allison Bryant moves to the small town of Serenity, she is confident that she'll finally be able to leave her past behind, and start over with a clean slate. But when she meets Kieran, the boy who has appeared every night in her dreams for months, everything she thought she knew gets tipped on its head. Soon, Allison finds herself thrust into a world of the supernatural--where dark magic exists, things really do go bump in the night, and words have the power to kill...or worse.
The stakes have never been higher, and Allison begins to realize that the fate of Serenity is the least of what hangs in the balance...a war is brewing, and she may hold the key to the salvation, or ruin, of both worlds.
