Five years ago, the gods of ancient mythology awoke around the world.
This morning, Kyra Locke is late for school.
Seventeen-year-old Kyra lives in a transformed Washington, D.C., home
to the embassies of divine pantheons and the mysterious Society of the
Sun. But when rebellious Kyra encounters two trickster gods on her way
back from school, one offering a threat and the other a warning, it
turns out her life isn’t what it seems. She escapes with the aid of
Osborne “Oz” Spencer, an intriguing Society field operative, only to
discover that her scholar father has disappeared with a dangerous relic.
The Society needs it, and they don’t care that she knows nothing about
her father’s secrets.
Now Kyra must depend on her wits and the suspect help of scary gods,
her estranged oracle mother, and, of course, Oz–whose first allegiance
is to the Society. She has no choice if she’s going to recover the
missing relic and save her father. And if she doesn’t? Well, that may
just mean the end of the world as she knows it.
From the author of Blackwood comes a fresh, thrilling urban fantasy
that will appeal to fans of Neil Gaiman, Cassandra Clare, and Rick
Riordan.
