This chilling sequel to The Hallowed Ones is "at once horrifying, hopeful, and hauntingly beautiful . . . [A] gorgeous read" (Darynda Jones, New York Times–bestselling author of the Darklight series).   After a plague of vampires was unleashed in the world, Katie was kicked out of the safe haven of her Amish community for her refusal to adhere to the new rules of survival.

No one knows whether they can be trusted—or if they're even people at all.   In this sequel to The Hallowed Ones, it's up to one Amish girl to save her family, her community, and the boy she loves . . . but what will she be asked to sacrifice in return?   "[A] top-notch sequel to The Hallowed Ones . . . A horror story with heart and soul." —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
