Monsters of Verity

KATE HARKER wants to be as ruthless as her father. After five years and six boarding schools, she's finally going home to prove that she can be. AUGUST FLYNN wants to be human. But he isn't. He's a monster, one that can steal souls with a song. He's one of the three most powerful monsters in a city overrun with them. His own father's secret weapon. THEIR CITY IS DIVIDED. THEIR CITY IS CRUMBLING. Kate and August are the only two who see both sides, the only two who could do something. But how do you decide to be a hero or a villain when it's hard to tell which is which? This description comes from the publisher.

KATE HARKER isn't afraid of monsters. She hunts them. And she's good at it. AUGUST FLYNN once yearned to be human. But no longer. He has a part to play. And he will play it, no matter the cost. THE WAR HAS BEGUN. THE MONSTERS ARE WINNING. Kate will have to return to Verity. August will have to let her back in. And a new monster is waiting--one that feeds on chaos and brings out its victims' inner demons. Which will be harder to conquer: the monsters they face, or the monsters within? This description comes from the publisher. Our Dark Duet is the second book in the Monsters of Verity duology, the first of which is This Savage Song.
