Mankind has always been fond of legends. Stories of terrible creatures, of daring rescues, of powerful magic. Alas, humans and their world of science have never been able to attain such power - or the one thing mankind most desires: immortality. After all, such things have no place in this world. If such creatures were to exist, they would surely be monsters.

Meet Gilly. She's what one might call a monster. A young teenager by appearance, she is actually a being that has existed for more than 700 years. As one of eight immortals holding the raw power of the world, she's also got her work cut out for her keeping up that streak. For humans, in all their greed, are not the only things searching for power.

As the illusion of science begins to dim, the side of the world that has been hidden for far too long begins to emerge once more. For all of their achievements, mankind is woefully unprepared for the horrors that await them. Gilly is one of the few standing between humanity and her own kind in the mounting conflict, setting both against her and the other seven. In order to save humanity, she must first save herself.

Cover image - © Gemphotography | Dreamstime.com 15-year-old Demi-Louise knew that her new life in Clopwyck River wouldn't be easy. Forced to live with her estranged sister and racked with guilt over her mother's death, she is guarded with those she might hurt- and who might hurt her. But she couldn't have predicted the secrets of this seemingly quiet town. Centuries before, the inhabitants of Clopwyck River drowned a pregnant witch and since then those born there are cursed with a power that lies dormant until unleashed by extreme emotion: the Facultas. Drawn into a life interwoven with magic and excitement, friendship and romance, Demi learns there is a sinister side of the Facultas: when used for evil, pieces of the soul are lost until there is nothing left but madness. She discovers that someone has found a malevolent way of circumventing the risk of losing the soul; death. A human sacrifice will unleash chaos and darkness will descend on the town. Just as Demi starts to accept her place in her friends' hearts, family secrets are revealed and she battles a life changing truth and a threat against her loved ones. She must come to terms with her hidden past and fight for her family and friends' lives- by any means possible.
