The Abandon Trilogy, BOOK ONE: ABANDON
Pierce Oliviera has already died once, two years ago, when she was barely fifteen. It was an accident; she drowned in the family pool. For more than an hour she was dead, and then she wasn’t – that was a miracle. Or maybe a curse, because her memory of that lost hour in the Underworld now haunts her everyday teenage life. So, too, does a dark, uncanny presence.
Synopsis
Pierce Oliviera has already died once, two years ago, when she was barely fifteen. It was an accident; she drowned in the family pool. For more than an hour she was dead, and then she wasn’t – that was a miracle. Or maybe a curse, because her memory of that lost hour in the Underworld now haunts her everyday teenage life. So, too, does a dark, uncanny presence.
Pierce may have escaped death, but she’s not got quit of death’s brooding, silver-eyed deity – aka John Hayden – who’s broken a few netherworld rules to pursue the object of his eternal desire. He’s followed Pierce from Connecticut to Florida, to Isla Huesos, where she has to deal not only with the indignities accorded a new girl in high school but also with the band of vengeful Furies on John’s tail. Both her shadow and her shield, John turns up at the very moments Pierce could do with some otherworldly assistance. Pierce could fall for a guy like this. And risk ending up back in that night-veiled place she fears most.
