Shadows and Nightmares: The Giftless Chronicles, #2

By J. Franklin Snyder

When vampires captured her family and cursed her brother, Corinne did what any responsible teenager would do: she grabbed her magic sword and went to work. Her victory was a hollow one. Haunted by trauma and terrible loss, she and her friend Madelyn seek solace at her grandparents' camp for Chroniclers. But dark forces, once set in motion, cannot easily be stopped. Madelyn's nightmares terrorize her, a heartless bureaucrat threatens Corinne's family, and a horrific monster from the Old World is preying on inner-city Chicago, leaving Corinne with impossible choices. Can she trust a handsome, powerful young Hunter at the camp to help her?
