After rising victorious from the survival challenge and battling through the afterlife, Jenny Huang is left crucified in the world of death. Meanwhile, her best-friend-slash-long-time-crush, Susan, is stranded on a brutalized and war-torn Earth as a ghostly awakened soul. As the end times near, there's only one thing left for them both to do: stop Adonai, the ultimate angel, from remaking all existence in his own twisted and horrific image.

Against all odds, Jenny Huang is still alive. Or as alive as she can be. She escaped the Survival Challenge, a twisted game in which mortals must kill or be killed, but the nightmare didn't end there. By forcing the Challenge to a close and returning to Earth, Jenny has unwittingly unleashed chaos: birthing the Antithesis, kicking off Judgment Day, and dooming the world to a host of bloodthirsty angels. Worst of all, her best-friend-slash-crush, Susan, is dead. And it's all Jenny's—and her insatiable appetite's—fault.

Jenny Huang's day starts out stressful enough. Between an argument with her overbearing mom and a surprise pop quiz in first-period English, she's counting down the weeks until she can escape to college.

But when an earthquake rips her high school into another realm, Jenny suddenly has much bigger problems to contend with. The Survival Challenge is in effect, trapping Jenny and her classmates in a hellish battle royale.

I should have just kept ignoring my phone. Just like I've been doing for the last couple months.

I'm next.

So I just got a call. Apparently my mom—yes, the same one who just came cannonballing back into my life a few weeks ago after ten years without a word—might have killed someone. A self-help guru. You know, one of those guys promising to SHIFT your life into overdrive with his magical secrets. "Shift" because those secrets come from a long lineage of shifters. Yeah, I don't get it either. Then again, I wasn't one of his loyal disciples, so I never paid much attention to his corny late night ads.

Emmy Davis, the world's most famous fox shifter, went missing two years ago. And I've just been hired to find her. If only things were that simple. The cops have no leads. Other PIs haven't fared any better. The trail is colder than an arctic winter. And to make matters worse, a mysterious creature from Javy Diaz's past has taken an alarming interest in the case. But all that might be the least of my problems. Because you know everything you've heard about the pitfalls of social media? Yeah. Turns out it's worse than that.

I just woke up in a motel. I have no idea who I am or how I got here. But I do know three things. There's a body on the floor...and one in the bathtub. There's a bullet in my shoulder. And it hurts. Bad. And there's a vampire warlock right outside the door. And he's coming to finish the job.
