Where Dark Things Rise

Sixteen-year-old Mina is frustrated by Daddy's drinking, her mom's fanatical religious beliefs, and growing up poor in the Southern Appalachian Mountains. Most of her teachers assume she won't amount to much despite her 4.0 GPA, and the country club guys think she's easy prey. But they don't know Mina's dark secret: She can control a magical force of supernatural creatures known as the Shadow Faces. 

Mina doesn't want powers. All she wants to do is escape the trailer park for a leafy college campus far away. But when her crush, Gabe, is stalked by a shapeshifting preacher/wolf, Mina learns to use her powers to protect him. Mina soon discovers the same preacher is trafficking teens for a mystical brothel and has kidnapped her best friend, Erin, after a failed attempt at conversion therapy. Can Mina use the Shadow Faces to save Erin and the other kids without losing her chance at a normal life?
