Mateo's family have a tormented past and it soon becomes evident that Mateo is the next member of his family to be cursed, particularly when the strange dreams Mateo has been having of rescuing a beautiful girl from a car accident actually come true. Despite the forces pulling them apart, Nadia and Mateo must work together to break his terrible family curse and prevent a coming disaster that threatens the entire town, including Nadia's family, her newfound friends and her own life. Shimmering with magic and mystery, New York times and number one bestselling author Claudia Gray's first book in a new trilogy depicts a dark and unforgettable world of witches, curses, buried secrets and star-crossed romance.

A brilliant story with magic, love and friendship. For Mateo, it was love before first sight and Nadia fell in love when Mateo risked his life to save her. Her arrival in Captive's Sound uncovers years of dark magic that course through the town. Can Nadia and her new found friends stop the darkness? Or will it consume them all? Gray does a fantastic job in shaping the story and bringing the characters to life.
