Sixteen-year-old Nina Kane should be worrying about her immortal soul, but she's too busy trying to actually survive. Her town's population has been decimated by soul-consuming demons, and souls are in short supply. Watching over her younger sister, Mellie, and scraping together food and money are all that matters. The two of them are a family. They gave up on their deadbeat mom a long time ago.

When Nina discovers that Mellie is keeping a secret that threatens their very existence, she'll do anything to protect her. Because in New Temperance, sins are prosecuted as crimes by the brutal Church and its army of black-robed exorcists. And Mellie's sin has put her in serious trouble.

To keep them both alive, Nina will need to trust Finn, a fugitive with deep green eyes who has already saved her life once and who might just be an exorcist. But what kind of exorcist wears a hoodie?

Wanted by the Church and hunted by dark forces, Nina knows she can't survive on her own. She needs Finn and his group of rogue friends just as much as they need her.

Why I'm Waiting:

      That cover!!! It's so pretty!! And I loved the synopsis of the book. It just left me intrigued and wanting to read it. It's sounds unlike any other book I've read. And I love when books have demons in them so I'm really excited to get my hands on this title. Also I've never read anything by Rachel Vincent but I heard good things about her other books.

   I think I've said this a bunch of times in my WoW's but I'm hoping the publisher will have some ARCS at their booth at ALA Midwinter since I will be attending the exhibit!!

    Such a beautiful cover!!! I've read some of her books before and I wasn't a huge fan, so hopefully this book will change my opinion when I read it. Great choice.
