Notes

All seventeen-year-old Dusty wants is to escape into books and the wilderness that surrounds her mountain home. What she doesn't know is that there's something waiting for her in the shadows of the forest. One morning, Dusty wakes up with dirt on her feet. Then she realises that her body and senses are changing. After a chance encounter with quiet and mysterious Will, she feels an attraction unlike anything she's experienced before. It's not just an emotional connection making her heart beat faster -- a thirst. But Dusty isn't the only person experiencing strange events in Black River. Darker forces are at play, and Dusty must uncover the truth or risk losing everything and everyone she loves.
