Opis

Gabriella Laudicino is in her senior year at Rover High. A bright and beautiful young woman with many reliable friends, a handsome boyfriend by her side, and supportive, loving parents. Her future ahead seems hopeful and easily obtainable. However, when a strange new student named Nadia Castella from Sydney, Australia transfers in and takes a personal interest in her, unexplainable phenomena begin to occur among her and her usual circle of peers. When Gabriella discovers that the family she thought she knew and the family she biologically belongs to isn't one in the same, she is alternately pulled through physical and psychological revelations turning a reality she had been living in, her entire life, completely upside down. She soon learns the true meaning of the term "blood is thicker than water" when realizing her true brothers and sisters belong to an ancient, angelic group of demons called Devans--or demons of the light. The journey upon discovering that Nadia Castella is the very same girl to induct Gabriella into this CLAN of unearthly creatures, is one that tests her faith in humanity, her faith in science, and her belief in an alternate universe she might have otherwise dismissed as fictional repertoire to familiar sci-fi cliches. Unfortunately, she comes to find that being a Devan also forces her to face some of her worst fears about the dark side of those same preconceived fantasies she had so willingly placated before. Filled with love, betrayal, life and death, demons and other nightmarish creatures, this novel will put Gabriella through a tsunami of unnatural events forcing the true meaning of good vs. evil on to her. Aside from unheard of scientific experimentation, and starting all over again from birth-literally, she will discover ancient secrets and horrific truths of who she really is and what the future has in store, inevitably changing her life forever.
