When newly orphaned Jax Aubrey awakes to a world without
people the day after his thirteenth birthday, he thinks it's
the apocalypse. But then the next day is a regular old
Thursday. Has Jax gone crazy? What's going on? Riley Pendare, Jax's sort of clueless eighteen-year-old
guardian, breaks the news: Jax just experienced the Eighth
Day, an extra twenty-four-hour period between Wednesday and
Thursday. Some people, like Jax and Riley, have the ability
to live in all eight days. But others, like Evangeline, the
teenage girl who's been hiding in the house next door for
years, exist only on this special day. At first it's awesome to have a secret day. But as Jax gets
to know the very guarded Evangeline, he discovers that she
is the sought-after key to an ancient spell rooted in
Arthurian legend. And Riley—who forgets to pay bills and buy
groceries!—is sworn to keep her safe from those who want to
use her to eliminate the seven-day world and all who live there. Jax tries to protect Evangeline, but with his new friend's
life on the line, as well as the threat of human
destruction, he is faced with an impossible choice: trigger
a real apocalypse or sacrifice Evangeline. With a whole extra day to figure things out, it couldn't be
too hard . . . right?
