"There are no angels in Baton Noir. Only devils." Jude Lomax
scrapes a living playing the trumpet on the neon streets of Baton
Noir. Then she is invited to play at the funeral of the infamous
cajou queen, Ivory Monette. Passing through the cemetery gates,
Jude finds herself possessed by the murdered queen's spirit. And
Ivory won't rest until she's found the person responsible for her
death. If Jude wants to be rid of the vengeful spirit, she must
take a journey deep into the dangerous underbelly of the city, from
the swampy depths of the Black Bayou to the velvet opulence of the
vampires' secret jazz clubs. But as Jude untangles Ivory's web of
secrets, she is confronted with a few dark truths from her own
past... The first in an eagerly awaited series from the author of
FROZEN CHARLOTTE, a WHS Zoella Book Club title in 2016, which is
sure to enthral fans of Holly Black, Maggie Steifvater, Amanda
Foody and Stephanie Garber.
Those are the rules in Rowan's Glen, a remote farming community in
the Missouri Ozarks where Ivy Templeton's family has lived for
centuries. It's an old-fashioned way of life, full of superstition
and traditions, and sixteen-year-old Ivy loves it. The other kids
at school may think the Glen kids are weird, but Ivy doesn't
care--she has her cousin Heather as her best friend. The two girls
share everything with each other--or so Ivy thinks. When Heather
goes missing after a May Day celebration, Ivy discovers that both
her best friend and her beloved hometown are as full of secrets as
the woods that surround them.
What happens when a horror movie becomes reality? Karen M. McManus
meets Scream in this spine-tingling YA horror thriller that cleverly
explores themes of race and class.
Devon Harris doesn't have much planned for the summer - until her
sister, Drew, invites Devon to a very exclusive private school party.
Out of her element, Devon commits to being game at everything. Even
when the private school kids ask her if there are fights at her school.
Even when they ask her if her box braids are her real hair. Even when
those weird ass kids pull out a Ouija board.
But this seemingly harmless bit of fun has terrible consequences.
Something has been released, and only a week later it's hunting Devon,
Drew and their friends. Hunting them in an eerily familiar way . . .
The real-life horror movie has begun. The blonde is up first, then the
asshole - right up to the Final Girl. Unless the murderous cycle can be
broken, they're all going to be next.
