About this ebook
Twilight fans—get ready to go back to the place where your obsession began.
The woods behind seventeen-year-old Jayden James' home in Forks, Washington are a place of many things. They are his escape from the bourbon ghost of his mother, the tireless torment of the town bully, and the place where he first lays eyes on Alexa, the new girl in town—a girl who makes his heart feel as if it beats for the first time.
Yes, the woods are his shelter. His haven. His hope. But…
They are also a place best known for the town's storybook vampire/werewolf lore.
The place where mysterious murders are about to shake up the town during the height of its annual Forever Twilight in Forks Festival.
And the place where he just woke up with blood on his hands.
Twilight gets a 21st century Frankensteinian twist with this electrifying debut, a page-turning reimagining of the cult classic that is timely, relevant, and deeply engrossing.
