Bleed

By: Dax Varley

Narrated by: Katy Johnson

Life is a nightmare for Miranda Murphy. Without knowing when or why, blood oozes from her palms - an anomaly that makes her feel like a freak. But her abnormality is now the least of her worries. She's just enrolled at "Suicide High." Three deaths in three months - one occurring just days before her arrival.

When she bumps into a cute boy named Jake, things don't appear so glum. Especially since Jake's a psychic who can predict the immediate future. But his gift of sight can't prepare her for the horrors that await.

Through Jake, Miranda meets three other extraordinary students:

Topher - who can heal by touch.

Sam - who eats the sins of the dead.

And Xyan - who speaks and understands all languages.

It's then that Miranda learns the secret behind why she bleeds.

When it becomes evident that supernatural forces are at play, the five determined friends team up. Now it's up to them to destroy the evil infecting their school.

Perfect for fans of Kami Garcia and Cassandra Clare.

Critic reviews

"Overall, I couldn't put this book down. I loved it and didn't want it to end." ( Magic Between Pages)

Paranormal teens, great characters and story!

BLEED by Dax Varley is a teen/young adult paranormal suspense novel. Miranda comes to "Suicide High", called this because of all the suicides in the last few months. Miranda also has stigmata. She knows it is a rare thing but always wondered why her. She meets four other teens at the school that have other paranormal/supernatural traits/abilities. She soon finds out why she bleeds and what she needs to do with it and what it has to do with "Suicide High". Great plot, characters, twists, suspense, and great fantasy. This book does not promote suicide in case someone is worried about this.
