From NYT bestselling author comes a haunting, high-octane contemporary fantasy for fans of The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. Winnie Wednesday fights to take the deadly Luminary hunter trials in Hemlock Falls’ nightmare-filled forest.
Hemlock Falls isn’t like other towns. You won’t find it on a map, your phone won’t work here, and the forest outside town might just kill you…
Winnie Wednesday wants nothing more than to join the Luminaries, the ancient order that protects Winnie's town―and the rest of humanity―from the monsters and nightmares that rise in the forest of Hemlock Falls every night. Ever since her father was exposed as a witch and a traitor, Winnie and her family have been shunned. But on her sixteenth birthday, she can take the deadly Luminary hunter trials and prove herself true and loyal―and restore her family's good name. Or die trying.
But in order to survive, Winnie must enlist the help of the one person who can help her train: Jay Friday, resident bad boy and Winnie’s ex-best friend. While Jay might be the most promising new hunter in Hemlock Falls, he also seems to know more about the nightmares of the forest than he should. Together, he and Winnie will discover a danger lurking in the forest no one in Hemlock Falls is prepared for.
Not all monsters can be slain, and not all nightmares are confined to the dark.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Age range 13 to 18 A brand new contemporary fantasy world from the New York Times bestselling author of the Witchlands series, Susan Dennard. Hemlock Falls isn't like other towns. It's not on a map, cell phones don't work there, and you might find a ghost-deer grazing at midnight. It's also inhabited by the Luminaries, an ancient order charged with guarding the nearby forest. Each night, when nightmares rise, only the Luminaries stand between humanity and these monsters bent on devastation - one clan for each night of the week. Fourteen orders around the globe. Winnie (of the Wednesday clan) desperately wants to reclaim her family's standing within the Luminaries. In the four years since her dad was caught as a witch, her family has lived as outcasts. Winnie's solution? Pass the hunter trials. Then her family will be welcomed in again. During the first trial, however, Winnie is severely outmatched by the forest's nightmares. So when a new, unknown monster slaughters a banshee and everyone assumes Winnie did the slaughtering, she doesn't correct them. Realising she will never survive the final two trials, Winnie seeks help from her gorgeous exfriend, Jay Friday, who is no longer a baby-faced boy but the best hunter in Hemlock Falls. As Winnie's lies start to pile up around her and bodies start to pile up from the new nightmare, she must protect Hemlock Falls, protect her family's new status, and protect her heart from a former friend with brutal secrets of his own. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Seller Inventory # GOR012990940
