You must walk the darkness to find the light. Born a half-faerie, Caoine has no control over the banshee lament she sings each night, predicting the death of others. A senior in a brand new high school, she expects the same response she's received in every other school: judgment from fellow students over her unusual eyes and unnaturally white skin and hair. However, when Caoine arrives at West Lincoln High, for the first time in her life she finds she has friends. Real friends. But being a teenager is never easy, especially when the star soccer player, Oliver, sets his sights on her. Allowing him to get close means revealing her curse to the mortal world. She can't let that happen. Life spins further out of control when her banshee lament comes out during the day, Oliver's ex-girlfriend decides to use her as a social punching bag, and a dark faerie known only as the Unseelie Prince leaves her the creepiest notes ever. People are dying, and she has until Halloween to figure out why. In a race against time, Caoine must uncover the Unseelie Prince's identity and stop a spell before it unleashes hell on earth, all while trying to control her banshee song and finding a place among her peers. Senior year just got real.
