Boil — David Estes

""The Walking Dead for teens, with ruthless witches instead of bloodthirsty zombies." -Katie Reed, agent at Andrea Hurst & AssociatesRevenge. That's all that's left for witch hunter Rhett Carter. The magic-born have stripped everything from him-killed his friends, cursed his warlock father, shattered his future-leaving him bare and broken, but not dead. Their mistake. When Rhett and Laney are suddenly thrust in different directions, Rhett must decide who to trust and who to kill. Backed by his trusty canine sidekick Hex, Rhett will embark on his deadliest mission yet, one that will lead him directly toward those who want him dead, pushing his unique resistance to magic to the edge and back again as he tries to remove his father's curse. Separated from Rhett, Laney seeks to understand the strange changes to her sister, Trish, who's believed to be the last living Clairvoyant, and what role she's destined to play in the future of humankind. Wrapped around everything are four major groups: the Necromancers, the Changelings, the witch hunters, and New America, the remnants of humanity. When the major forces are brought together for an epic battle, the fate of the world hangs in the balance."
