Always a talented witch, Z now can barely perform magic and is rapidly decaying. Faced with rejection from their remaining family members and old friends, Z moves in with their mother's friend, Mrs. Dunnigan, and befriends Aysel, a loud would-be-goth classmate who is, like Z, a loner. As Z struggles to find a way to repair the broken magical seal holding their body together, Aysel fears that her classmates will discover her status as an unregistered werewolf. When a local psychiatrist is murdered by what seems to be werewolves, the town of Salem, Oregon, becomes even more hostile to \"monsters,\" and Z and Aysel are driven together in an attempt to survive a place where most people wish that neither of them existed.\u003cbr\u003e Rarely has a first-time author created characters of such immediacy and power as Z, Aysel, Tommy (suspected fey) and Elaine (also a werewolf), or a world that parallels our own so clearly and disturbingly.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hal Schrieve\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1609809017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781609809010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Triangle Square\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/26\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 448\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.30h x 5.60w x 1.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e National Book Awards - Nominee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/15\/2019 pg. 53\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/15\/2019 pg. 152\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2019 pg. 92\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/13\/2019","brand":"Hal Schrieve","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44044913803519,"sku":"9781609809010","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d64fdac0-ad12-43e8-8d3f-8c27e6ad2ec8.jpg?v=1684975652","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/out-of-salem-hal-schrieve-9781609809010","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
