Fifteen years ago, The Vanishing thrust Manhattan into darkness, forever changing the City That Never Sleeps. By day, resilient New Yorkers have adapted, clinging to the vestiges of their cosmopolitan lives. By night-well, you never go out at night unless you have a death wish.

Or unless you're Rei Reynolds.

Rei attends an exclusive New York prep school, but unlike her classmates, she welcomes nightfall. That's when she can secretly hunt Deathlings, the deadly creatures that have prowled Manhattan's subway tunnels and blood-soaked streets since the Vanishing. After they brutally slaughtered her parents years ago, Rei is desperate for vengeance.

To get it, Rei must qualify for-and win-the Tournament, a competition to join the ranks of the city's legendary Deathling hunters. Rei's nightly pursuits should give her an advantage, but the other competitors are fierce, and in some cases familiar- enter Kieran Cross, Rei's most infuriating rival . . . and ex-boyfriend.

As the Tournament progresses-and the cutthroat competition escalates-everything Rei believed about who she can trust is called into question. Soon enough, she's caught in the crosshairs of the elite who want to keep the city's ruling class in power, as well as those who will stop at nothing to bring it down. Because sometimes it's not the monsters waiting in the dark you should fear . . . it's the ones who dare to walk into the light.

Coco Ma's exhilarating urban fantasy thrusts readers into an immersive world of thrills and chills, featuring the smart, sardonic post-apocalyptic heroine you'll soon wish you could be.

Coco Ma is the young adult author of Nightbreaker and the Shadow Frost trilogy. Though she has spent her whole life training as a concert pianist, she discovered her love for writing fantasy and finished her first book, Shadow Frost, at the age of 15.

On the occasion that she stumbles upon some free time, she enjoys daydreaming about monsters and eating cake. Lots of cake.
