The Nix twins don't belong in the sunny, sea-side town of Aslyn - so why are they here? It's a question that's been nagging at Shay's mind for over two years. Now, when she accidentally almost hits Jake Nix with her car, she might just find out. Strange weather patterns, a creeping darkness that sucks the life out of people and her eccentric Nana Ferris' insane stories of the Nix boys' true natures will sure make for an interesting year.
