      Perfect for fans of Nicola Yoon and Ally Carter, the dazzling sequel to #1 New York Times-bestselling author Marie Lu's Stars and Smoke, is “a brilliant, breathtaking ride" ― Tahereh Mafi, #1 internationally bestselling author. A year has passed since superstar Winter Young last saw secret agent Sydney Cossette. After barely surviving their mission together in London -- and their intense chemistry -- they haven't talked since, though that hasn't stopped Winter from thinking about her nonstop. . . So when Sydney shows up at his studio with a new mission from Panacea, Winter has no choice but to accept. With no time to lose, the duo heads abroad to rescue a fellow agent -- only to learn he is none other than Sydney's ex. Of course, nothing is ever simple when it comes to Winter and Sydney. As old flames give way to new jealousies, they find themselves ensnared in yet another treacherous plot that's much more sinister than it seems. To make it out alive, they'll have to figure out how to be partners again -- and if they can resist something more.

      Der Weg in die Grobstofflichkeit hat den Menschen mehr und mehr von seinem göttlichen Funken in ihm selbst entfernt. Die Versuchungen Lucifers, die durch eine egozentrische Lebensführung, die mehr auf Schein als auf die Wahrheit setzt, zu Tage treten, müssen wahrgenommen werden, während man sich gleichzeitig auf die Liebe Gottes besinnen soll. Als Durchgaben aus der feinstofflichen Welt erhielt Marie die Worte von Jesus, Erzengel Michael und vielen weiteren Engeln und Wesenheiten zu unterschiedlichen Zeiten. Alle haben eines gemeinsam: Es ist ein Weckruf zur Umkehr.

The Karensa Federation has conquered a dozen countries, leaving Mara as one of the last free nations in the world. Refugees flee to its borders to escape a fate worse than death--transformation into mutant war beasts known as Ghosts, creatures the Federation then sends to attack Mara. The legendary Strikers, Mara's elite fighting force, are trained to stop these monsters. But as the number of Ghosts grows and Karensa closes in, defeat seems inevitable. Still, one Striker refuses to give up hope. Robbed of her voice and home, Talin Kanami knows firsthand the brutality of the Federation.

After another devastating battle, Mara seems ready to fall. But when a mysterious prisoner is brought from the front, Talin senses there's more to him than meets the eye.
