Title: Hereafter
Author: Jennifer Snyder
Release Date: 18 February 2013
Genre: Young Paranormal Romance
In Death I could finally see the
importance of Life…
After being forced to become a Reaper
Council member and being torn away from the one she loves, Rowan Harper must
learn to accept her altered Fate as well as her death and move on. A task
easier said than done, especially when witnessing those you love suffer in the
wake of your death.
When an unlikely alli provides
information that could change everything, Rowan sets out on a journey through
Purgatory with her beloved by her side and a nonchalant Tracker to learn the
true meaning of the word sacrifice. Another task which seems easier said than
done, especially with the threat of Purgatory’s ability to corrupt your soul
the longer you’re in its grip looming above their heads.
Torment and sin, pain and evil floated
through the air in a near suffocating haze. I could feel it surrounding me,
brushing up against me, attempting to lure me in deeper and away from the door
so I couldn’t escape as though it were alive. I licked my lips and tasted the
bitterness of this place on my tongue. Jet’s hand tightened around mine, and I
could sense his tension as he glanced at what lie before us. My eyes darted
about in wonder, taking in my surroundings.
Purgatory was eerily beautiful, in a
gothic sense. It was as if stepping through the door had taken us deep
underground without taking any stairs. Cold, dark dirt lay beneath my bare
feet, etched with deep ruts and grooves. There was no sky, only more dirt above
me, bumpy and full of ridges. I felt as if I’d stepped inside a damp cave long
ago forgotten by even the smallest of creatures. White fog bubbled from a
crater a few hundred feet away from where Jet and I stood, and danced across
the ground hypnotically.
Gripping my hand even tighter, Jet put
one foot in front of the other, and we began making our way through the silent
darkness that was Purgatory, toward the crater that dipped into the ground.
After only a few steps, I noticed something at the cliff-like edge of the
crater, something shinny and black that caught the small glint of light
available and reflected it.
“What is that?” I asked, pointing, just
before I realized what the objects were. “How are there crows down here?”
We’d taken a few steps before Jet shook
his head and finally answered me. “Those aren’t crows; those are ravens.”
