IS LIFE OFFERING FEWER AND FEWER OPTIONS? THEN JOIN THE DEAD.When Annelise left for college, it meant good riddance to her abusive father and stepmother-until a bureaucratic screw-up left her without a diploma, flat broke, and facing an uncertain future. Then she met Ronan-tall, dark, and way too seductive for her own good. He promised Annelise a new life, if she had the courage to chance the unknown. One look at him and she certainly had the desire. Sure enough, accepting rides from strangers does yield surprises.Whisked away to a mysterious island in the North Sea, Annelise is pitted against other female recruits in tests of skill, smarts, and strength. To win is to become a member of the Watchers, an elite and unique partnership-with vampires-that dispatches its teams on the most dangerous missions imaginable. It’s not exactly what Annelise had in mind for a new beginning but it’s livelier than the alternative. Because on the Isle of Night, to lose the challenge doesn’t just mean dishonor. It means death.Let the games begin.WINNER OF THE NATIONAL READERS’ CHOICE AWARD!'Isle of Awesome.' - Young Adult Books Central'...one of the most dangerous, romantic, and exciting paranormal YA titles I’ve read all year.' - All Things Urban Fantasy'Bram Stoker would be proud.' - Young Adult Book Reviews'The experience of reading this book is visceral...my body was tense, my heart rate picked up as Annelise faced danger, I was scared for her and simultaneously wanted her to win and to escape, but mostly I wanted her to survive.
