When the town she grows up in is falling, more and more die and come, and the protectors aren't coming out, will Saitie Hale find them herself? I hoped but every time she ends up on her lawn scratched up. And safe. Everyone gave up on the protector fairytale, as they call it, a WHILE back though the little fragile girl (as they think) who's constantly saved still hangs on to the leash, not bitten through to disbelief just yet, still wishes. Midnight rains and the protectors come out as Saitie believes. Then HE comes. Who? Just open the book to find out.......
