Judy I. Lin, #1 New York Times bestselling author of A Magic Steeped in
Poison, ventures into horror with Rick Riordan Presents in this a
sinister tale of the supernatural, sisterhood, and the shadows that
rule our darkest desires. Perfect for fans of Ryan La Sala and Trang
Thanh Tran.
Ruby Chen has always played the part of the dutiful eldest daughter:
excelling in school; excelling in piano lessons; excelling at keeping
her younger sister, Tina, focused on extracurriculars meant to impress
college admissions officers.
But when a ghost from the spirit world attacks Ruby in the middle of
Vancouver’s Chinatown neighborhood, her life is plunged into a darkness
that no amount of duty can free her from. Overnight, Ruby’s sister
seems to change. There are strange noises coming from her bedroom at
all hours; and the once sweet, funny Tina has been replaced by
something dark and unnatural.
As Ruby races to save her sister from demonic possession, she is thrown
into an ancient battle over the gateway to the underworld. On one side,
a sinister traveling temple known for making dark wishes come true has
returned to Chinatown after many years—intent on breaking down the
gateway and unleashing the wickedness within. On the other side, the
guardians determined to stop this encroaching evil
And in order to survive, Ruby must not only face the horror taking over
her community, but must also confront the horror within herself.
Chinese and Taiwanese mythology get the Junji Ito treatment in this
bone-chilling, propulsive story that takes the horrors of the Asian
diaspora experience to a whole new level.
