The first book in the new series from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Fallen seriesNever, ever cry. . . . Eureka Boudreaux's mother drilled that rule into her daughter years ago. But now her mother is gone, and everywhere Eureka goes he is there: Ander, the tall, pale blond boy who seems to know things he shouldn't, who tells Eureka she is in grave danger, who comes closer to making her cry than anyone has before.But Ander doesn't know Eureka's darkest secret: ever since her mother drowned in a freak accident, Eureka wishes she were dead, too. She has little left that she cares about, just her oldest friend, Brooks, and a strange inheritance—a locket, a letter, a mysterious stone, and an ancient book no one understands. The book contains a haunting tale about a girl who got her heart broken and cried an entire continent into the sea. Eureka is about to discover that the ancient tale is more than a story, that Ander might be telling the truth . . . and that her life has far darker undercurrents than she ever imagined.

Profile Picture

Eureka is suffering through the first months without her mother, whom she lost in a car accident when a wave crashed and pushed them off of a bridge. She barely made it out alive herself. In the aftermath, dealing with an abominable stepmother, she leans on her best friends Cat and Brooks. When a mysterious boy named Ander crashes into Eureka's car and life, things become complicated. Eueka finds out her mother left her items in her will, things that have very important implications. A locket, a thunderstone, and a book with a story of two lovers in Atlantis are what she gets.
