![]() Important questions about poverty and privilege are at the core of this standalone novel, and they’ll keep readers hooked just as much as the paranormal peril. The story is set in 1987, allowing for playful nods to the pop culture and fashion of the day. ![]() Although Mara doesn’t seem to have the same gifts as her fellow travelers, she is strong, independent, and pragmatic-no damsel in distress. Hocking (the Kanin Chronicles) takes time to examine Mara’s complex emotions regarding Gabe, her ramshackle life on the road, and her mother. Mara and Gabe’s whirlwind, class-crossing romance plays an important role without drowning out other central relationships. But her family of misfits is falling prey, one by one, to a beast that is stalking the campsite, and a series of shadowy encounters and twists builds to a battle-driven reckoning.
