Kim and Jaimie are freshman roommates, but their college experience is anything but typical. This is Jaimie’s first time in the “real world,” away from her large, complicated family and their magic and traditions. It’s Kim’s chance to escape her high school reputation. But Jaimie quickly realizes what Kim can’t see — it’s more than just a “reputation.” Kim is being pursued by something that feeds on her emotions. And, just like that, reality reshapes itself as the two girls — along with Jaimie’s three cousins — try to capture and rout the viri, or soul demon, that is tracking Kim. This utterly original novel by Nina Kiriki Hoffman combines humor, darkness and hope, and will spellbind readers.
