The obligatory love triangle never threatens the main love story, but at least Ali’s friendships with other characters, especially her quirky new best friend Kat, are interesting. As if being chased by slobbering, decaying dead things wasn’t enough, Ali also navigates well-meaning if out-of-touch grandparents and the tension between her new social group and the rough crowd (more specifically, Ali’s interested in its leader, Cole Holland). Now living with her grandparents and starting a new school, Ali-she eschews her old name due to memories, grief and survivor’s guilt-can’t build a new life while being followed by her father’s demons. But after a terrible car accident kills Alice’s family, she begins to see the undead, too. Alice Bell has never been an ordinary girl-she’s never been allowed outside after dark courtesy of her paranoid father and the monsters he sees everywhere.
