In the City of Nightmares, one haunted girl is taking back more than just her dreams.

In a drowned city on the edge of the sea lives a girl in a tower.

Cole is nobody. One more haunted drone among the grey, spiritless masses. She knows better than to dream of a better life. But death doesn't care about good intentions.

"It was the dead man's expression that drew me . . ."

First, there's the rebellious ghost who won't stop pestering her. Then, a mesmerizing, golden-eyed stranger with a dangerously tempting proposition. And to cap it all off, a shattered corpse that sends her spiralling into the middle of a deadly conspiracy.

That's just day one.

"I call upon the Mara . . ."

Cole's life is over if she can't outrun the enforcers, outsmart the monsters, and take back her story from those who would make it their own.

Her quest for truth, vengeance, and a life worth living races from the dizzying dystopian heights to the dazzling carnivalesque depths of her nightmare-infested tower.

But can she reclaim her broken city—and threadwitch's touch—in time to avoid a bloody end?

She's about to become their worst nightmare.
