First published 2012
Nick Gautier isn't your typical high school student. While other kids worry about grades and staying out of trouble, Nick fights for his life against enemies who want him dead, including his own father. He's already learned to destroy zombies, raise the dead, and use divination and clairvoyance. But driving a car and maintaining a relationship with his girlfriend prove surprisingly difficult. These everyday challenges pale beside his real problem: survival. Nick stands at a crossroads that will determine humanity's fate. He could become the greatest hero the world has ever seen, or he might be the one who destroys everything. As both familiar and unknown enemies gather their forces against him, Nick must use every skill and power he possesses. The stakes couldn't be higher. If he fails, he'll lose everyone he loves, including himself.
