Emma Carstairs is no longer a child in mourning, but a young woman bent on discovering who killed her parents and avenging her losses. <p/>Together with her battle partner Julian Blackthorn, Emma must learn to trust her head and her heart as she investigates a demonic plot that stretches across Los Angeles, from the Sunset Strip to the enchanted sea that pounds the beaches of Santa Monica. If only her heart didn't lead her in treacherous directions... <p/>Making things even more complicated, Julian's brother Mark--who was captured by the faeries five years ago--has been returned as a bargaining chip. The faeries are desperate to find out who is murdering their kind--and they need the Shadowhunters' help to do it. But time works differently in faerie, so Mark has barely aged and doesn't recognize his family. Can he ever truly return to them? Will the faeries really allow it? <p/>Glitz, glamours, and Shadowhunters abound in this heartrending opening to Cassandra Clare's Dark Artifices series. <p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> "Clare delivers spectacular Shadowhunter fare with her trademark street tough yet emotionally fragile adolescent characters taking on adult roles and includes plenty of violent action and passionate romance to satisfy fans of "The Infernal Devices" and "The Mortal Instruments" series, who will be thrilled to see some of their favorite characters from the previous books make appearances."--School Library Journal </br></br>Clare's well-developed protagonists..., pell-mell action sequences, complicated family dynamics, and fascinating magic system continue to engage.--Publishers Weekly </br></br>Fresh and...wonderfully told.--Booklist </br></br>Positively aquiver with secret ardor and murderous zeal.-- "Kirkus" <p/><br></br><p><b> About The Author </b></p></br></br> Cassandra Clare is the author of the #1 <i>New York Times</i>, <i>USA TODAY</i>, <i>Wall Street Journal</i>, and <i>Publishers Weekly</i> bestselling Shadowhunter Chronicles.
