The thing about death is … it sneaks up on
you.


Seventeen-year-old seer Charlie and his new boyfriend, Sam, know
that the dead can't hurt the living. It's ghosts who need protection
from dangerous soul catchers - and the boys have promised
to keep them safe. But when a powerful force interferes with their
defences, and a brutal attack leaves them questioning everything
they know, the boys realize there is more at stake than they ever
imagined.


A deadly occultist seeks revenge, the bodies are piling up, and
everyone that Charlie loves is at risk. As the mystery unravels,
Charlie and Sam face a battle for more than just their lives.



The thrilling and heart-wrenching new novel from the author
of Sixteen Souls.
