For Conrad, moving to Overton was the promise of a fresh start, a way to escape the pain and ridicule, and leave behind the hateful words that reminded him every day he was a monster.
He would not make the same mistake again. He would keep his other-self hidden, his heart shielded. Or that had been his intention. The moment his gaze met Ashley's, his resolve faltered. With a single, disarming glance, she became all he could think about; an infatuation he knew must be shed.
But she was human, incompatible with his kind. To love her would be to one day watch her burn.
He had thought wrestling with his heart was his biggest concern, but his new friends harbour a secret. They hold the answers to one of the most burning questions of their time. But how much is Conrad willing to sacrifice to get those answers?

De centrale roller, vi følger gennem bogen, fremstår levende med deres komplekse personligheder og indbyrdes relationer, hvilket gør dem mindeværdige. Selv de karakterer, vi kun kort møder, viser hurtigt deres relevans, når vi skifter fokus tilbage til de andre. De tilfører ekstra krydderi til fortællingen. Med tanke på, hvor grundigt og veludviklet bogen er beskrevet på hver enkelt side, ville en epilog eller en længere slutning have været ønskelig. Det ville give mulighed for at samle op på flere tråde og give en bredere afslutning, givet de mange forskellige karakterer, vi ser. Det ville være en god måde at væve helheden sammen, frem for den minimale afslutning, vi fik. ... Det tilrådes at gennemgå bogen for at rette de få grammatiske fejl.
