In the eerie, isolated Little Town, Selene Meyers has always been surrounded by darkness-a father who abandoned her, a mother lost to alcohol, and an aunt who took her own life. But when she stumbles upon a mysterious dog in the woods and a deadly secret, her world is turned upside down. One night, after nearly running over the same dog on a deserted road, Selene makes a shocking discovery: the creature transforms into a hauntingly beautiful boy with white hair and eyes as dark as the night. Silent yet powerful, he draws Selene in like nothing else ever has. As a ruthless witch-hunting organization descends on Little Town, searching for the supernatural, Selene must protect her enigmatic new companion while grappling with feelings she never expected. But in a place where secrets have a life of their own, Selene soon realizes the boy she's hiding may be far more dangerous than she could ever imagine.
