"When Kate's mother makes a dying wish to return to her home town, Eden, Kate drops what's left of her life and goes with her. She doesn't want to make friends – she's here for her mum and nothing else – so she's not very interested when popular girl Ava, with her jock boyfriend Dylan, invites her to a party.
But against her better nature, Kate goes, and sees something that changes everything. Henry. Dark, mysterious Henry, who seems to be able to bring people back to life. Kate knows such things are impossible, but the idea infects her – for what if Henry could save her mother?
That said, I stand by what I said about really enjoying the book. It was a little too depressing at first to be a light read, but it was well paced, atmospheric and featured some interesting and colourful characters. It's one of those stories where I think, now the set up has been got out of the way, books two and three of the trilogy will be bigger and better. I will certainly be keeping an eye on the bookshelves for book number two ''Goddess Interrupted''.
My thanks to the publishers for sending a copy. We also have a review of Carter's [[Simon Thorn and the Wolf's Den by Aimee Carter|Simon Thorn and the Wolf's Den]].
Fans of re-imaginings and retellings of Myths and legends should check out Bookbag's [[Top Ten Retellings of Myths , Legends and Fairy Tales]] list."
