Addison Beckett tries hard to
pretend she's normal, but she's far from it. Since she was
six years old, she's seen the world around her unraveling,
as if someone is pulling a thread from a sweater and it's
all slowly coming undone. When she ignores it, it goes away,
so that's what she does.
Enter her arrogant-but-hot professor Asher Green. He knows
all about her special brand of crazy. In fact, he might be
just as nuts as she is. Asher insists that the dead from a
parallel dimension are trying to possess the living in this
one. And since Addison seems to be the only one who can see
these "wraiths," she just might be the key to saving the world.
Addison wants nothing to do with Asher or his secret
society, The Mortal Machine. But as their animosity grows,
she finds it harder and harder to ignore the chemistry
between them. And when she discovers that Machine laws
forbid her from touching him, she realizes that's all she
wants to do.
Stop the wraiths. Break the rules. Save the world. All in a
day's work.
