This is the true first edition, signed and limited to only 300 copies, as published by Delirium Books... Life in Clearwater was quiet, even a little dull for Grim, but it was better than the time he’d spent on the streets of Seattle. His biggest worry was being caught playing paintball in the salvage yard by Old Man Wallen. Then the strange girl arrived, abandoned at a roadside diner. Drugged, sick, with no memory of her past. Grim had a bad feeling about her from the beginning but he didn’t say anything when his foster mother, Clara, took her in. If anyone needed a home, it was this strange, sad girl. Clara’s new Angel. Michele had always been a good girl, was never in trouble. Then Angel came, and the very night the strange girl appeared, Michele killed a man. It wasn’t murder, but it didn’t matter. When her old friends shun her, Michele finds friendship again in Clearwater’s other outsiders: Grim and Angel. As Angel’s health improves and her memory returns, the hot Clearwater summer becomes increasingly strange. Insanity creeps through the small town like a plague, spawning violence, and no one is immune. And death has arrived in the form of a shadowy figure lurking in the woods at night.
