Innocent Darkness (The Aether Chronicles Book One)

Noli Braddock and her best friend V�s incident with a flying auto have landed them in a heap of trouble. And when Noli is sent to a spirit-squelching reform school in San Francisco, she�s sure that her rebellious adventures are over. Meanwhile, Kevighn Silver has been ordered by the Faerie Queen to bring a mortal girl back to the Otherworld. The magic requires a blood sacrifice every seven years, and only a mortal girl who shines with the Spark�a girl like Noli�will keep the Otherworld from complete destruction. When an ill-timed wish sends Noli tumbling into the Otherworld, she�s more homesick than ever . . . until V arrives to save her from an untimely demise. But who exactly is V? And if he helps Noli escape, who will save the realm of Faerie from utter annihilation?
