    And if he then said that San Francisco had been overrun by mythical Japanese monsters who wanted to kill his family, I’d think he was probably spending too much time watching anime and playing video games. I don’t blame you for wanting to put this book back on the shelf and move on to something more realistic, like vampire and werewolf love stories. But I’m telling you, this is real. It actually happened to me. It started when I was forced on a family vacation with my parents and my little sister. It was the kind of trip your folks drag you on so everyone can bond with each other. I was minding my own business, standing by myself, looking at some cheap snow globes in the back of this Chinese tourist shop, when from out of a dark corner, I hear a deep sarcastic voice. Normally I would have walked away like I had a thousand other times. After all, I grew up hearing voices from things that weren’t real and I’d learned to ignore them. But this time, it was talking about my sister being “death marked” and how little time she had left. I hunted for the source of the ominous warning, but all I found was a metal display stand filled with paper umbrellas.

That ends when a routine job goes sideways, leaving Lane with a sack full of stolen sun shards—the source of sun fae power. Without the shards, the sun fae face giving up their magic completely, or risk death if they use their power. Considering they would rather see her dead, good riddance, as far as Lane’s concerned—except her father and adopted sister are sun fae. Lane must choose—return home to save the fae bastards that almost killed her, or let them burn.
