In her stunning debut, Cheryl Isaacs (Mohawk) pulls the reader into an unsettling tale of monsters, mystery, and secrets that…
refuse to stay submerged. When small-town athlete Avery's morning run leads her to a strange pond in the middle of the forest, she awakens a horror the townspeople of Crook's Falls have long forgotten. The black water has been waiting. Watching. Hungry for the souls it needs to survive. Avery can smell the water, see it flooding everywhere; she thinks she's losing her mind. And as the black water haunts Avery - taking a new form each time - people in town begin to go missing. Though Avery had heard whispers of monsters from her Kanien'k©♭ha:ka (Mohawk) relatives, she has never really connected to her Indigenous culture or understood the stories. But the Elders she has distanced herself from now may have the answers she needs. When Key, her best friend and longtime crush, is the next to disappear, Avery is faced with a choice: listen to the Kanien'k©♭ha:ka and save the town but lose her friend forever...or listen to her heart and risk everything to get Key back. An unmissable horror novel for readers who devoured Trang Thanh Tran's She Is a Haunting or Claire Legrand's Sawkill Girls!

And the aforementioned keys? They're kept inside the house, safe from the outside world and the mysterious Arcana, a magical secret society intent on stealing them But, just as Leah begins to accept that she herself is a child of a god, with a destiny far greater than she can imagine ́the keys are sent back to the three separate magical realms from which they came, as a test from the gods ́leaving The House and all its magical inhabitants in an uproar. So, against the strict warnings of her new mentor, Leah and her new friends take it upon themselves to retrieve the keys before the winter solstice and before the Arcana can find them ́or, Leah realizes, she will never find her mother again. But, when it's revealed that both Leah's grandmother and mother were long since killed by the mysterious darkness pursuing Leah to date, and that the keys open a box with a power much grander than anyone could have imagined ́Leah is forced to become the leader she always avoided being.

So, Leah and her friends put their animosity aside to work with the Arcana and save the world from the greed of one woman.

Only trouble is, the menacing darkness who killed Leah's family has a face, and has been watching her all along

Skye Nickson's world changed forever when her dad went on the run with her brother, Finn. It's been four years…
without Finn's jokes, four years without her father's old soul music, and four years of Skye filling in as Rent-a-Finn on his MIA birthdays for their mom. Finn's birthday is always difficult, but at least Skye has her best friends, Reece and Jax, to lean on, even if Reece has started acting too cool for them. But this year is different because after Finn's birthday, they get a call that he's finally been found. Tall, quiet, and secretive, this Finn is nothing like the brother she grew up with. He keeps taking late-night phone calls and losing his new expensive gifts, and he doesn't seem to remember any of their inside jokes or secrets. As Skye tries to make sense of it all through the lens of her old Polaroid camera, she starts to wonder: Could this Finn be someone else entirely? And if everyone else has changed, does it mean that Skye has to change too?
