Veil of Death and Shadow (Order of Reapers #1)

Six years ago, the tightly-coiled barrier between the supernatural world and our own collapsed.

Nothing since has been the same, least of all me.

My name is Mareena, and for as long as I can remember, nearly every person Ive grown close to has met with an early demise: my parents, extended family, first boyfriend, first girlfriendLook, you get the idea. Well be here all day if I lay the full list out for you.

I guess just be thankful Ive never had a pet.

My solution to this meddlesome curse: Let no one close.

(Other than my equally meddlesome best friend, who rejects my every attempt to push her away.)

And curse or not, Ive managed to build a pretty comfortable life, all things considered.

I have a home, a job, and a small community that I care about. Things Ive fought tooth and nail to get—and protect.

My plan was supposed to be simple. Easy. Or so I thought. Simplicity flew out the window with The Undoing.

Armed with my best friend, a crow thats set up permanent residence in our apartment (to be clear, absolutely *not* a pet—hes a freaking menace), and the increasingly terrifying visions Ive been getting, I have to find a way to survive in this strange new world.

But try as I might to protect my small world from deaths embrace, death comes calling anyway—in the form of two mysterious men that only I seem able to see. They wait on the sidelines, eager to pull me towards my destiny. Whether Im ready for it or not.

Dont worry.

Death may be relentless, but so am I.
