What this book is about
In the third and final book of the Darkest Powers trilogy, Chloe Saunders and her group—Derek, Simon, Tori, and Andrew—confront the Edison Group directly. Chloe's necromancy powers are growing beyond what anyone expected, and the truth about what the Group did to them demands a reckoning. Armstrong's YA paranormal thriller concludes its storylines with action and emotional payoff while keeping the romance between Chloe and Derek in the careful register appropriate to the series.
