Marked

Sixteen-year-old Kara Nightingale is unpopular, awkward and positively ordinary-that is until one day she is struck by a bus and dies... Within moments her life changes from ordinary to extraordinary as she wakes up in a mysterious world with a new career-as a rookie for the Guardian Angel Legion. Kara is pulled into the supernatural where monkeys drive the elevators, oracles scurry above giant crystal balls and where demons feed on the souls of mortals. When an Elemental child is kidnapped, Kara is sent on a danger-filled quest and plunges into a situation more dangerous and deadly than anything she could ever imagine. From the best-selling author comes this captivating, funny debut novel and winner of the Readers' Favorite Award.
