A thrilling, STANDALONE, supernatural teen adventure.
When Marshall King and Elyse Alton suddenly wake up tangled in each other's arms, with no memory of how they got there or even who they are, it's the start of a wild supernatural ride. A bizarre and creepy roller coaster of magic and memory, twisting and plummeting through their separate pasts . . . and shared future.
Desperate to restore their memories, the two amnesiacs work together -- pooling their unique special abilities -- to piece together clues about their lives. Soon they discover that they're in the idyllic mountain resort town of Summer Falls. Everyone seems happy here, but as Marshall and Elyse quickly learn, horrors lurk beneath the town's perfect facade. Not only is the town haunted by sinister ghosts, but a psychic haze blankets its living inhabitants, keeping them from retaining any bad memories.
Can Marshall and Elise somehow save themselves—and the town—from what looks to be the darkest brand of magic?
Or will the mysteries they're trying to uncover spell death to the town and to their own budding romance?
A 2012 Junior Library Guild Selection. Optioned for TV by CBS in 2013
Praise for Glimmer:
“The decidedly sci-fi feel of this supernatural suspense story will appeal to a broad range of readers.” (ALA Booklist)
“Both Elyse and Marshall are feisty and flawed, making for a satisfying and romantic action-adventure … perfect for a quick summer read. ” (Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books)
“Laced with magic and a touch of romance, and enhanced by a truly creepy setting, this is an intriguing mystery. Give this one to teens who want something other than the typical supernatural romance.” (School Library Journal)
"I loved Glimmer so much — it was one of those books that I finished the same day I started. There was so much mystery in the story, especially in the beginning, and I NEEDED to know how it ended....a fun, fast read..." (author Michelle Madow)
"I could barely set it down because every page had a new twist to the story. The pace did not fall below heart-pounding. Glimmer swallowed me whole and I was taken completely by surprise." (Reading Teen)
