Sixteen-year-old Finley Jayne and her "straynge band of mysfits" have
journeyed from London to America to rescue their friend Jasper, hauled
off by bounty hunters. But Jasper is in the clutches of a devious former
friend demanding a trade—the dangerous device Jasper stole from him
for
the life of the girl Jasper loves. One false move from Jasper and the strange clockwork collar around Mei's neck tightens. And tightens. From the rough streets of lower
Manhattan to elegant Fifth Avenue, the motley crew of teens with
supernatural abilities is on Jasper's elusive trail. And they're about
to discover how far they'll go for friendship. More than ever, Finley Jayne will
rely on powerful English duke Griffin King to balance her dark magic
with her good side. Yet Griffin is at war with himself over his secret
attraction to Finley
and will risk his life and reputation to save her.
Sam, more machine than man, finds his moody heart tested by Irish lass
Emily—whose own special abilities are no match for the darkness she
discovers on the streets. Now, to help those she's come to
care for so deeply, Finley Jayne must infiltrate a criminal gang. Only
problem is, she might like the dark side a little too much
.
