lifestones from humans after they die. Rebellious, sixteen-year-old
Naomi craves a normal life, but unfortunately, she's a Grim by

But Naomi soon becomes attached to the kids she's been assigned to
watch over. And knowing that these teens are gonna die under less
than ideal circumstances, she has the opportunity to prevent their
deaths from occurring. Only one big problem-interfering with death
is the worst crime a Grim can commit. If she intervenes, she'll put
herself and her family in danger. Naomi must make the hardest
choice of her career, go against the sacred covenant or watch her
new friends walk blindly to their deaths. Only one thing is for
certain-Naomi has a grim knack for finding trouble and she's about
to break all the rules... 87,000 words/Ages 13 and up

childish activities, so she's thrilled when she comes across other
teenagers at the ski lodge. These kids really know how to have fun.
Bex is having a great time with them until she realizes their fun
comes at the expense of others. She has two choices; She can spend
the rest of her vacation following Aunt Jeanie's itinerary and

new friends. What will Bex decide? Grades 5-8

miserable. Aunt Jeanie enrolls Bex in a social group called the
Silver Roses, a group that's supposed to teach young girls how to
be proper ladies. It turns out to be nothing more than a club for
snobs. Bex wants out, but she's made a deal with Aunt Jeanie. Will
