"A girl falls into a parallel universe where all lost things go"--Provided by publisher.

Clara loves rules. Rules are what have kept her and her sister, Molly, alive -- or, rather, undead -- for over a century. Work their historic movie theater by day. Shift into an owl under the cover of night. Feed on men in secret. And never fall in love. Molly is in love. And she's tired of keeping her girlfriend, Anat, a secret. If Clara won't agree to bend their rules a little, then she will bend them herself. Boaz is cursed. He can't walk two city blocks without being cornered by something undead. At least at work at the theater, he gets to flirt with Clara, wishing she would like him back. When Anat vanishes, and New York's monstrous underworld emerges from the shadows, Clara suspects Boaz, their annoyingly cute box office attendant, might be behind it all. But if they are to find Anat, they will need to work together to face down demons and the hungers they would sooner bury. Clara will have to break all her rules -- of love, of life, and of death itself -- before her rules break everyone she loves.

They also explore a labyrinth of spooky tunnels, resulting in encounters with a hulking "franken-farmer," a hideous witch who is eager to turn children into rats, and other subterranean terrors on the way to a climactic struggle with a raving, tentacled well monster"--Kirkus reviews.

"Sixteen-year-old Lucille hopes to one day open a school alongside her best friend where girls just like them can learn what it means to be Haitian: to learn from the mountains and the forests around them, to carve, to sew, to draw, and to sing the songs of the Mapou, the sacred trees that dot the island nation. But when her friend vanishes without a trace, a dream-a gift from the Mapou-tells Lucille to go to her village's section chief, the local face of law, order, and corruption, which puts her life and her family's at risk. Forced to flee her home, Lucille takes a servant post with a wealthy Haitian woman from society's elite in Port-au-Prince. Despite a warning to avoid him, she falls in love with her employer's son. But when their relationship is found out, she must leave again-this time banished to another city to work for a visiting American writer and academic conducting fieldwork in Haiti. While Lucille's new employer studies vodou and works on the novel that will become Their Eyes Were Watching God, Lucille risks losing everything she cares about-and any chance of seeing her best friend again-as she fights to save their lives and secure her future in this novel in verse with the racing heart of a thriller"--Provided by publisher.
