Like most humans, Madison is oblivious to the supernatural world, only confused by her estranged mother who, in essence, is dead.
Madison feels responsible for her father’s death. The burn on her neck is a constant reminder that she survived, she was the lucky one. Sarcasm has become her weapon of choice. Unfortunately, her primary target is usually herself, and anyone who steps within five metres of her.
Truants who have escaped the Afterworld have been associated with Angels. To survive in the real world these Angels must prey on human ‘essence’ – the life inside a person. However, feeding on a human’s essence comes at a cost to that person.
Along with failing maths and other teenage difficulties, Madison becomes a prime target for Kane, the ruthless leader of the Angels. Kane wants his life back and is willing to stop at nothing.
