BOOK OF LIES<br />
by Teri TERRY<br />
They are trapped, frozen. Waiting. Straining against the wood<br />
that holds them. The unwary catch a glimpse now and then -- feel<br />
their desperate hunger, see a glint of red eyes - and scurry out of<br />
the shadows of the wood, back to the light. She’s coming; it will<br />
be soon. An ancient curse placed on a family of witches foretells<br />
that twins will be born -- one good, one evil; and one will destroy<br />
the other. But who can be trusted when no one is as they seem?<br />

In the following weeks he comes to map out all the significant<br />
adventures he has in the labyrinthine city, trying to make sure he<br />
doesn’t cross the path of the murderer, who he believes wishes<br />
to silence and dispose of him.<br />
