The narrator begins to suspect that Bryn may be concealing terrifying gifts under the guise of magic tricks. As the tension between them grows, a harrowing encounter is followed by Bryn’s death. Alternating between their time as students and the narrator’s return to Cambridge years later, where he fears the ghosts of his past are waiting for him, And He Shall Appear performs an astounding slight-of-hand that throws every version of the story into question. This propulsive novel about the dark power of privilege will haunt readers like a familiar piece of music with endless iterations.

Book excerpt: "I was eaten, plain and simple. It felt like being burned alive, like every cell in my body was exploding. Then everything stopped—my breathing, my pain, my heart . . ." The Innocent is a passionate lyrical novel and modern myth, at once a coming of age story and a guide to life’s most mysterious and powerful force: Love. Reminiscent of A.S. Byatt’s Possession and Paulo Coelho’s The Alchemist, The Innocent tells of a woman’s mythic journey through sorrow and death toward fulfilment and understanding. Alexa Wyndham is a painfully sheltered girl from Brooklyn with a mysterious past. She is an innocent in every sense of the word, her views of the world formed through the lens of the poetry and literary novels she reads. Now on her own in college in Manhattan she finds the big bad city is waiting to devour her. When she goes out with friends on Valentine’s Day, a stunning kiss from a stranger is her introduction to this new and dangerous world. Her would be lover is after her flesh. It contains a most powerful transformative energy, and the supernatural creatures of the city are willing to do anything for a taste of it. Eight-hundred-year-old Lord of New York City Cristien LaRoche thinks he is just doing his job when he rescues Alexa from the clutches of a rabid night creature, but she is much more than just a helpless victim. He has not seen anyone like her in an eternity, and he has been glad of it. Alexa is an Innocent, a nascent daemon on the verge of her change. He will be damned if helps her and damned if he doesn't. Even if he can save her from those who seek her power, he still won’t be able to protect her from his own deadly past. Alexa and Cristien may be the most unexpected couple to ever search for True Love, but they are also fated to be together. They will embark on the road rarely travelled, facing terrible trials and crushing defeats in order to get that most coveted prize. As these two souls struggle to find a way to be together, they will learn about the wisdom of forgiveness, the nature of suffering, the seduction of evil, and the power of unconditional love.
