Blood and Moonlight

Ages 14 to 18

From the author of the Traitor's Kiss trilogy, a YA medieval fantasy thriller about an orphan girl with secret powers of perception who gets caught between a mysterious genius and a serial killer.

Rising above the city of Collis is the holy Sanctum. And watching over its spires is Catrin, an orphan with unique skills—for she alone can spot the building’s flaws in construction before they turn deadly.

But when Catrin witnesses a murderer escaping the scene of his crime, she’s pulled into the web of a dangerous man who will definitely strike again. Assigned to capture the culprit is the mysterious, brilliant, and enigmatic Simon, whose insights into the mind of a killer are frighteningly accurate.

As the grisly crimes continue, Catrin finds herself caught between murderer and detective while hiding her own secret—a supernatural sight granted by the moon, destined to make her an outcast, and the only thing that might save her and those she loves from becoming the next victims.
