The Year of Disappearances

It was the year of disappearances. The honeybees were the first to go.

Half-human and half-vampire, Ariella Montero has spent her first thirteen years in exile, unable to fit into either of her worlds. After the murder of her best friend, Ani struggles to begin a new life in Florida, but her special talents are severely tested as she moves on—from a vampire community in the Sunshine State to college in Georgia to the primeval maze of the Okefenokee Swamp. One by one, the people and things she cares most about begin to disappear. And Ari may be next.

In a style that The New York Times calls "minimalism 0. Henrified," Hubbard chronicles Ari's mysterious and spellbinding quest, begun in The Society of S, as she contends with the demons and shadows that haunt us all.
