Description
With the rare ability to see ghosts in both the human and daemon worlds, Lucky de Salle has discovered she is both a desirable ally . . . and a potentially dangerous enemy. And she is definitely a liability to those who love her. When Kayla, her best friend and daemon familiar, mysteriously disappears, Lucky and her daemon guardian begin the search for her in the Underlands immediately. Along the way they stumble across a secret that seems to make Lucky even more of a danger to her enemies--and therefore an even greater target.
Soon the hunters become the hunted. Henri le Dent, the dangerous and well-connected daemon who already tried to permanently erase her from existence once, and Amaliel Cheriour, the sinister executioner of the daemon court, want to put an end to Lucky at all costs. If she is to find Kayla and survive, Lucky has to rely on her wits, her inner strength, her new friends, and the emerging talents that make her more powerful than she ever realized.

Praise for Marked
"I loved this book. The characters, the atmosphere, the banter, the romance, it all worked. Marked is a wonderful debut for Tingey."
--- A Fantastical Librarian
"[A] compelling debut...a brisk paranormal tale with outstanding world building, a large cast of well-drawn characters, and an intricate plot filled with intrigue and adventure. Marked reads like a PG-13 version of the Sookie Stackhouse series, combined with some of the sinister and thought-provoking undertones of Neil Gaiman's Neverwhere. This trilogy opener will find wide appeal in libraries hungry for more quality urban fantasy."
--- Booklist, starred review
"Marked is a gripping and tantalisingly sexy read. I loved the strong-willed psychic protagonist Lucky, as well as the courtly intrigue, terrifying supernatural assassins, and thought-provokingly buff daemon bodyguards. Team Jinx."
