Audrey Whitticomb has nothing to fear. When your mother is the most powerful superhero in the Twin Cities, it's hard not to feel safe. But when Audrey is lured into the night air by something most definitely not human, the time for feeling safe is over.
Now Audrey knows the truth: her mom doesn't just stop criminals. She fights Harrowers-merciless beings who were trapped Beneath eons ago. Some have managed to claw their way into our world, and they want Audrey dead because of who she is: one of the Kin.
There is some good news, though. Audrey has powers of her own. Being able to read someone else's mind and glimpse the future can be very useful. If she's able to get close enough to Patrick Tigue, a powerful Harrower masquerading as human, she could use her Knowing to figure out his next move. But it won't be easy, not if Leon, her mother's bossy, infuriatingly attractive sidekick has anything to do with it. Lately, he hasn't let Audrey out of his sight.
When an unthinkable betrayal puts Minneapolis in terrible danger, Audrey discovers a wild, untamed power within herself. It may be the key to saving herself, her family, and her city. Or it may be the force that destroys everything-and everyone-she loves.
