Synopsis
Constance Jerome wants nothing more than to make
it through her senior year of high school without being noticed. But when her
mother drops the world's biggest bombshell, flying under the radar just isn't
in the cards. It turns out Constance is a necromancer—one of the few who can
travel the realms of the dead.
Apparently it runs in the family. And now
there's a threat coming: another necromancer with plans to disturb the living
and the dead, and Constance and her mother are the only ones who can stop him.
If only they knew who he was. Or what exactly he was up to. A quiet senior year
isn't an option, and Constance must race to stop a high school apocalypse
before the balance between the living and the dead is overturned.
Excerpt
Her mother had
the habit of putting on a certain facial expression whenever she and Constance
reached a point in conversation when Constance
was forced to admit that she was young and clueless and her mother was older
and wiser; the look involved her mother barely raising her eyebrows and the
left corner of her mouth turning up. It was the look she was currently wearing.
“Point taken. But you should at least give him a chance.”
“He’s had a chance. He looked like he threw up a little in his
mouth when Mr. Mason asked me to tutor him.”
The knife her
mother was holding hovered over the green chiles on the cutting board. She
turned around. “He really looked like he threw up a little?”
“Yes, a toad on the inside then. Be careful, hon.” Then the knife
resumed tap, tap, tapping across the cutting board.
