Cassie's Song Clay Gilbert

"What if forever can end?" It's been a year since Cassie Edwards left Auburn, Alabama behind for Atlanta, Georgia, and a new life with Martin Cabot, the Night-Kind who saved her from certain death. She's Cassie Cabot now. The love she always looked for, a freedom from the illness that had dominated her life, the gifts of eternal life and youth: leaving the mortal world behind should be a small price to pay for these, but Cassie can't stop looking back. She's plagued by dreams of her friends and family, and unable to fully come to terms with her new life. And that's not all. All around Atlanta, something is happening that shouldn't be able to: the Change that separates vampires from humankind is breaking down, and Night-Kind are dying. The dark secret behind this mystery seems to lie with a new sect of Night-Kind called "new-bloods," but Cassie's search for answers and a new sense of belonging among them makes new enemies. Soon, she's on the way back to Auburn, to make peace once and for all with her own daylight and darkness-or else die trying.
