The Deep Dark (PB)

Molly Knox Ostertag

"Utterly compelling" - Observer

From Molly Knox Ostertag, writer-illustrator of the New
  York Times and ABA Indie bestselling The Witch Boy
  trilogy and The Girl from the Sea, comes a darkly
  beautiful graphic novel about identity, family, love, loss and magic.

  Everyone has secrets. Mags's has teeth.


  Magdalena Herrera is about to graduate high school, but she already
  feels like an adult with serious responsibilities: caring for
  her ailing grandmother; working a part-time job; clandestine makeouts
  with a girl who has a boyfriend. And then there's her secret,
  which pulls her into the basement each night, drains her of
  energy, and leaves her bleeding. A secret that could hurt and even
  kill if it ever got out - like it did once before.


  So Mags keeps her head down, isolated in her small desert community.
  That is, until her childhood friend Nessa comes back to town,
  bringing vivid memories of the past, an intoxicating glimpse
  of the future, and a secret of her own. Mags won't get attached,
  of course. She's always been strong enough to survive without
  anyone's help.


  But when the darkness starts to close in on them both, Mags will
  have to drag her secret into the daylight, and choose between
  risking everything... or having nothing left to lose.





  A hauntingly beautiful tale of identity, family, love, loss and
  magic

  Perfect for fans of the ABA Indie The Witch Boy trilology
  and The Girl From the Sea

  From the New York Times bestselling author, Molly Knox
