Rae Carson has a problem. He knows it. Everyone knows it. Now seventeen and still dealing with his random blackouts, Rae has yet to figure out exactly what is wrong with him. Victim to a phenomenon that no doctors can explain, Rae is terrified and alone, left to deal with the surreptitious echoes of hisses that plague him day and night. To make it worse, when a mysterious appearance of a dazzling woman enrages him, and a presence of a new girl in town triggers unbelievable hatred beyond his sanity, Rae must not only fight the fear that he's kept locked up inside, but also... the temptation to kill. That alone is slowly, yet surely, driving him mad. But when the time comes, he will find his answers. Answers that not only involve himself but also that of a secret, a hidden fate that has somehow entwined him into its web of mysteries. He will discover things he never knew, things that forever bend the boundaries of reality. And when he does, he might just find his own death as well.
