In this highly anticipated contemporary fantasy, twelve-year-old
Maya's search for her missing father puts her at the center of a
battle between our world, the Orishas, and the mysterious and
sinister Dark world. Perfect for fans of Aru Shah and the End of
Time and The Serpent's Secret. Twelve-year-old Maya is the only one
in her South Side Chicago neighborhood who witnesses weird
occurrences like werehyenas stalking the streets at night and a
scary man made of shadows plaguing her dreams. Her friends try to
find an explanation-perhaps a ghost uprising or a lunchroom
experiment gone awry. But to Maya, it sounds like something from
one of Papa's stories or her favorite comics. When Papa goes
missing, Maya is thrust into a world both strange and familiar as
she uncovers the truth. Her father is the guardian of the veil
between our world and the Dark-where an army led by the Lord of
Shadows, the man from Maya's nightmares, awaits. Maya herself is a
godling, half orisha and half human, and her neighborhood is a safe
haven. But now that the veil is failing, the Lord of Shadows is
determined to destroy the human world and it's up to Maya to stop
him. She just hopes she can do it in time to attend Comic-Con
before summer's over.
