Navigate between myth and chaos in this โjourney filled with peril, self-discovery, and terrifying momentsโ (Publishers Weekly, starred review).
Sixteen-year-old Scotch struggles to fit inโat home sheโs the perfect daughter, at school sheโs provocatively sassy, and thanks to her mixed heritage, she doesnโt feel she belongs with the Caribbeans, whites, or blacks. And even more troubling, lately her skin is becoming covered in a sticky black substance that canโt be removed.
While trying to cope with this creepiness, she goes out with her brotherโand he disappears. A mysterious bubble of light just swallows him up, and Scotch has no idea how to find him. Soon, the Chaos that has claimed her brother affects the city at large, until it seems like everyone is turning into crazy creatures. Scotch needs to get to the bottom of this supernatural situation ASAP before the Chaos consumes everything sheโs ever knownโand she knows that the black shadowy entity thatโs begun trailing her every move is probably not going to help.
A blend of fantasy and Caribbean folklore, at its heart this tale is about identity and self-acceptanceโbecause only by acknowledging her imperfections can Scotch hope to save her brother.
