Mara is dead—mostly.
Infected with a virus that broke the world and turned her into a monster, Mara awakens in a facility to learn a treatment has been found. No longer a Tick, Mara is placed in an experimental relocation program. But she’s sent to live with the best friend she hasn’t seen since the world ended. Since their first and only kiss.
Rory is alive—barely.
And her nightmares are as vicious as the Ticks that infected Mara and permanently injured Rory. Even after the Island—one of the surviving communities—rebuilds itself, Rory fears a Tick attack from the mainland at any time. But the Ticks that show up are medicated—not quite themselves but no longer raging monsters. Among them is the first girl Rory ever loved...the one she thought was gone forever.
As Mara and Rory struggle with the violence they’ve inflicted and experienced, they must lean on each other to survive their brutal world—or risk losing each other all over again.
A powerful and fierce reimagining of the founding of the Roman empire and the legend of Romulus and Remus—and the mother whose sacrifice made it all possible.
The Nightbirds were once their city’s best-kept secret, but now the secret’s out. What’s more, they can do magic no one has seen in centuries. They’re like the Fyrebirds of old: the powerful women who once moved mountains, parted seas, and led armies. Some say that when four join together, they become a force that shakes the earth and sends magic rippling through it. It does seem as if something has awoken in Eudea, but the four girls responsible don’t want the world to know the full extent of what they can do—at least not yet.
