YA
Seventeen-year-old flapper Evie (The Diviners) and friends confront another supernatural threat. As before, Bray follows multiple characters, many also paranormally gifted. Several plot threads intertwine when Ling and Henry begin dream-walking together and a frightening "sleeping sickness" descends on NYC. Bray's vividly detailed descriptions, taking readers from glittering high-society parties to claustrophobic tunnels filled with ghastly creatures, give the novel a cinematic quality.
