    1st printing. Written by Jennifer Dugan. Art and cover by Kit Seaton. In this queer, supernatural YA graphic novel from the author of Some Girls Do and the illustrator of Wonder Woman: Warbringer, a reluctant teen werewolf would do anything to be human - if that's what it takes to win her crush's heart. Tessa feels like she doesn't fit in anywhere. Not at school, where she can't figure out how to confess the feelings she has for her friend Maddie. And definitely not at home, where the other werewolves in her family make her feel like an outcast because she can't even shift into her full wolf form yet. Sometimes she thinks her whole life would be easier if she wasn't a werewolf at all. When word gets out that a group of werewolf hunters has infiltrated her pack's territory and that they've developed a cure that can make werewolves human, Tessa thinks she's found the answer to her problems. But when she discovers there might be more to the hunters' plans than anyone knows, it's up to Tessa to put herself on the line to protect the lives of those she loves most. And the only way to save them is to embrace the wolf inside her that is howling to get out. Softcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 256 pages, full color. Cover price $17.99.

A chance to save those who cannot save themselves. Then one day, the key to Death's Door is stolen, trapping all the ghosts in the land of the living. Since he's only one who can see them, the spirits rely on Dorian to retrieve the key before it is too late.
