Pandora Zwieback is a 16-year-old Goth girl who's just discovered that her New York City hometown is the stalking ground for every creature of the night out to raise a little hell (literally!). Problem is, she thinks she's the only one who can see them, which means she can't tell her friends or family about the dangers around them—not unless she wants to spend the rest of her life locked up in a psychiatric ward.
But before Pan has a chance to make sense of her increasingly weird life, she finds herself in the middle of a war among rival vampire clans. Elegant Gothic Lolitas from Japan on one side, silk-suited Euro-vamps on the other, leather-clad hunters from Eastern Europe in the middle, and all after the same prize: a mysterious crate recently delivered to the horror-themed museum owned by Pan's dad.
What is its terrifying secret—and will Pan survive long enough to find out?
