Description

The opening two chapters of a frantic paranormal action trilogy. After a year on the run following their mother's violent death, siblings Jason (17) and Miranda (18) are forced to find sanctuary at their grandfather's secluded Scottish castle, Eila Doone. The siblings face a reunion filled with mystery and secrets about their family's past. Their arrival is marked by a playful sibling rivalry, showcasing their close bond despite their difficult circumstances. But this is only the beginning. Jason’s subsequent flight to Silent Hill—a brutal school hidden in the Yorkshire Moors—marks the start of a far deeper descent into danger. Here, he’ll meet allies, enemies, and the terrifying truth behind the Brethren, a demonic cabal determined to twist his power for their own ends. As friendships form and betrayals unfold, Jason must learn to wield not just his fists but the supernatural force simmering inside him to either continue a life on the run or stand and fight. And the demons are coming either way. Face Your Demons is the first in a pulse-pounding trilogy where loyalty is tested, power has a price, and the line between good and evil is just a shifting veil of dark smoke. With a morally grey cast, tight action scenes, and the unsettling sense that anyone can fall, this is YA paranormal at its most cinematic—and its most human. The story delivers a captivating blend of family secrets, paranormal action and suspense, leaving readers eager to unravel the secrets surrounding the siblings' past and the deadly forces closing in on them. Fans of The Raven Boys, Department 19, and The Mortal Instruments will find themselves right at home in the darkly magnetic atmosphere of boarding schools, secret castles, simmering teen relationships and cursed bloodlines.
