Descripción editorial
From New York Times bestselling author Kalynn Bayron comes a new horror novel about a group of teens with unique-and potentially deadly-gifts.
Moll, Redd, Agnes, and Ossie are powerful-and dangerous. But they don't want people to fear them. They've spent their lives trying to understand and control their supernatural gifts, trying to help people instead of hurt them.
That's why they offer paranormal investigative services to anyone who needs them. But when the case of a missing young woman brings them to an old (and potentially haunted) Victorian mansion, soon it's the four teens who are in the greatest danger. The secrets they uncover about the paranormal forces inhabiting the house may shed light on the darkness that exists at the edge of their powers and finally help them gain control-if they can make it out alive.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Bayron (Make Me a Monster) crafts a thrilling horror novel about an intersectionally diverse found family who uses their supernatural gifts to assist in paranormal investigations throughout Portland, Ore. Moll, Agnes, Redd, and Ossie consider themselves to be relatively normal teens contending with issues such as bad hair days and queer identity—except for their unique and volatile gifts, which include manipulating thoughts and emotions, reading minds, and influencing animal behavior. They're taken in by Moll's mother, who restrains the teens' powers. To make sense of their experiences and help others, they create the Oculus, a website through which they offer their abilities to help solve supernatural mysteries. When the owner of a crumbling Victorian home asks for their help investigating strange occurrences and the disappearance of a young woman linked to the property, the group soon learns about a long-dead occult practitioner and powerful Black medium whose legacy continues to reverberate through a secretive and dangerous network. Interspersed among Moll's first-person POV are fascinating accountings about notable occult figures and Black spiritualism that ground the supernatural elements in a pseudo-documentary framework. This riveting and delightfully sinister tale pairs monster-hunting excitement with astute explorations of power and control. Ages 13–up.
