Book Overview

Eerie, addictive, and repackaged with a stunning new look, The Summoning is the gripping first book in the supernaturally spooky New York Times-bestselling Darkest Powers trilogy that returns to haunt a new generation of readers.

She sees dead people--and they see her.

Chloe Saunders used to have a pretty normal life. But that changed on the day she met her first ghost. Locked up in Lyle House, a group home for troubled teens, she finds out there's more to the home's teen residents than meets the eye.

Will Chloe be able to uncover the dangerous secrets of Lyle House...or will its skeletons come back to haunt her?

  • Supernatural Love Triangle: Chloe Saunders' heart is torn between two brothers--a charming sorcerer and a brooding werewolf--in this bestselling horror-romance trilogy.
  • Slow Burn: From thrilling moments of forced proximity to tender hurt/comfort scenes, the will-they-or-won't-they tension between Chloe and her love interests could make even a zombie's heart race.
  • Y2K YA Nostalgia: With the love triangle of Twilight, supernatural conspiracy of Stranger Things, and necromancer thrills all its own, the Darkest Powers trilogy is the perfect nostalgic young adult read.

Back Jacket

My name is Chloe Saunders and my life will never be the same again.

All I wanted was to make friends, meet boys, and keep on being ordinary. I don't even know what that means anymore. It all started on the day that I saw my first ghost--and the ghost saw me.

Now there are ghosts everywhere and they won't leave me alone. To top it all off, I somehow got myself locked up in Lyle House, a "special home" for troubled teens. Yet the home isn't what it seems. Don't tell anyone, but I think there might be more to my housemates than meets the eye. The question is, whose side are they on? It's up to me to figure out the dangerous secrets behind Lyle House . . . before its skeletons come back to haunt me.

She is however an expert coffee drinker and a true connoisseur of chocolate-chip cookies.
