I never wanted to go to Mardi Gras. The wild parties, the chaos—none of it was for me. But my sister Raya lives for it, and spending time with her means everything. So, I went, determined to survive the madness for her sake.
Then I met him. A man so captivating it was impossible to look away. There was something dangerous about him, something eerily familiar, but I couldn’t place it. Not until the night that changed everything.
What started as a night of fun and celebration turned into a nightmare. Creatures that shouldn’t exist attacked us. The supernatural world isn’t real… at least, I thought it wasn’t. But now Raya is missing, and no one will believe me.
I know what I saw. I know she’s out there somewhere. But can I find her before it’s too late? And more terrifyingly—am I next?

I’m still staring at my hand when the driver rolls the window down.

“Are you kidding?” I snuff out a laugh and head down the alleyway. “I’ll beat you there.” After what I just felt, I need some serious thinking time, and I never think better than I do on my bike. Ripping up the blacktop has a way of calming my nerves.


But when I round the corner, some dumb son of a bitch is leaning against my chopper like he owns the goddamn thing. Just looking at him, I can tell he’s exactly the kind of person I hate. Which is just what I need right now.
