Mysterious disappearances. An urban legend rumored to be
responsible. And one group of friends determined to save their city
at any cost. Stranger Things meets Jordan Peele in this utterly
original debut from an incredible new voice. For over a year, the
Bronx has been plagued by sudden disappearances that no one can
explain. Sixteen-year-old Raquel does her best to ignore it. After
all, the police only look for the white kids. But when her crush
Charlize's cousin goes missing, Raquel starts to pay
attention-especially when her own mom comes down with a mysterious
illness that seems linked to the disappearances. Raquel and
Charlize team up to investigate, but they soon discover that
everything is tied to a terrifying urban legend called the Echo
Game. The game is rumored to trap people in a sinister world
underneath the city, and the rules are based on a particularly dark
chapter in New York's past. And if the friends want to save their
home and everyone they love, they will have to play the game and
destroy the evil at its heart-or die trying.
Set more than one hundred years after the Borden murders, this
propulsive, supernatural thriller imagines what might happen if history
were to repeat itself today. Perfect for fans of Kara Thomas and
Courtney Summers!
When Mariella Morse accuses her boyfriend, Vik Gomez, of murdering her
wealthy parents with an axe, the town is quick to believe her. It
doesn't help that Vik is caught standing over her parents' bodies with
blood on his hands, unable to remember anything about the night in
question.
But Vik's sister, Tessa, knows that Vik would never be capable of such
a gruesome crime. Haunted by the mistakes she made that led her family
to move to Fall River, MA in the first place, she sets out to prove her
brother's innocence.
Tessa's search for answers will lead her into a sprawling, notoriously
cursed forest, where she and Mariella must face a darkness that has
lurked within their town since before the days of Lizzie Borden--the
original axe murderess of Fall River.

A boy on a quest against the power of the storm Eleven-year-old
Danny's parents are storm chasers - which sounds fun and exciting,
and it is, so long as you aren't the son who has to wait behind at
home. And one night, after a particularly fierce storm, Danny's
parents don't come back. Stranger still, the old sycamore tree in
Danny's yard seems to have been struck by lightning, and when he
picks up a fragment of wood from the tree's heart, he finds he can
hear voices ... including that of next door's rather uppity cat,
Mitzy. The stick is a taro, a shard of lightning that bestows upon
its bearer unnerving powers, including the ability to talk with
plants and animals - and it is very valuable. So valuable, in fact,
that it attracts the attention of a Sammael, an ancient figure of
darkness and a buyer of souls. And he will do anything to get his
hands on it ... And so begins a dangerous and daring quest. Danny,
who is bewildered, alone and unaccustomed to acts of bravery, must
confront his fears, find his parents and unravel the secrets of The
Book of Storms ...
'Addictive as a puzzle, moving with breakneck speed, Nemesis had me guessing until the very end. Try to predict what Nemesis is. I dare you.' - Victoria Aveyard, #1 NYT Bestselling author of Red Queen

Across the valley, Noah just wants to be like everyone else. But he’s not. Nightmares of murder and death plague him too, though he does his best to hide the signs.
As the world around them begins to spiral towards panic and destruction, the two troubled teens discover that people have been lying to them their whole lives . . .
