Book description
The world seemed to dip and darken and I smelled wet earth and thick
musk and fresh blood. The wind whipped past, like I was running. Running
so fast the ground whizzed beneath me and the wind cut across my skin .
. . Maya Delaney has always felt a close bond with nature. The woods
around her home are a much-loved sanctuary - and the pawprint birthmark
on her hip feels like a sign that she belongs. But then strange and
terrible things begin to happen in the tiny medical-research town of
Salmon Creek (population: 200). The captain of the swim team drowns
mysteriously in the middle of a calm lake. Mountain lions appear around
Maya's home, and won't go away. Her best friend, Daniel, starts
experiencing 'bad vibes' about certain people and things. One of those
people is Rafe - the new bad boy in town. What is he hiding - and why is
he suddenly so interested in Maya . . . ? Kelley Armstrong is author
of ten international bestselling Women of the Otherworld books, the
highly acclaimed Darkest Powers young adult series, two mainstream
thrillers about a hit-woman, and a short story collection, Men of the
Otherworld. She lives in rural Ontario, Canada, with her husband, three
children and far too many pets.
