Once upon a time, there was a girl who didn't believe in monsters. Until now.
Echo Midnight Navarri has reached her seventeenth birthday—alone. It's been well over a year since her twin, Midnight, slipped from her hand into a ravine shrouded in blue mist deep in the Brazilian jungle. The locals refer it to as the veil. Echo believes it is a nightmare. One that she can't seem to escape.
Her parents, world-famous archaeologists, Peter and Alice Navarri, stayed behind after sending Echo to live with her aunt in a rainy little town at the edge of the world known as Port Royal. The search goes on, but the mystery remains.
Echo continues to experience visions as the details of the events leading up to that fateful night start to reveal themselves to her. Piece by piece, bit by bit. Exposing the truth and forcing in the light where once there was only darkness.
Despite everything, she has managed to make friends, even a new boy, by the name of Asher Tiberious Westbrook the third, a self-proclaimed warlock who doesn't mind that Echo tends to shy away from anyone who wants to be close to her. But she fears intimacy after losing her sister. Especially with him. Not Asher Westbrook. Thorn Vega. A boy whose terrifying secrets may outweigh her own.
