Noel Waverly has spent her life on the run—though her parents never say from what. When they move to the quiet town of Ravenspring, she hopes, for once, to stay.
But something is wrong in Ravenspring.
Girls have been disappearing for decades—always seventeen, always after a dance, always without a trace. When Noel begins uncovering the truth, the pattern becomes impossible to ignore... and impossible to escape.
Because this time, the pattern is changing.
Drawn into a world of buried secrets, ancestral power, and a predator who has been hunting for generations, Noel finds herself at the center of something far older—and far more dangerous—than she ever imagined.
And when she finally comes face to face with the one responsible, she doesn't just survive him.
She leaves marked.
Because some monsters don't need to chase you.
Some only need to choose you.
