Moving to a new town was not on Hattie's to-do list for the summer. Her arrival in Applewood brings nothing but strange things to her doorstep. A bendable boy guards an abandoned orchard. A cactus gives her a bullet. A monster made of oil stalks those around her. And nobody can see them but her. When traveling consultants show up on her doorstep, a chance encounter with the boy named Jack forces them to confront the monsters and their intertwined fates. Worse yet, the lives of the people she loves now hang by a thread. When her world collides with another, Hattie must make a choice: save herself or save her parents. Tsava awaits. Perceiver is the first book in The Perceiver Trilogy, a YA fantasy series with magical creatures and grand adventures.
