Discover this first installment of the internationally bestselling Mortal Instruments series and âprepare to be hookedâ (Entertainment Weekly).
When fifteen-year-old Clary Fray heads out to the Pandemonium Club in New York City, she hardly expects to witness a murderâmuch less a murder committed by three teenagers covered with strange tattoos and brandishing bizarre weapons. Then the body disappears into thin air. Itâs hard to call the police when the murderers are invisible to everyone else and when there is nothingânot even a smear of bloodâto show that a boy has died. Or was he a boy?
This is Claryâs first meeting with the Shadowhunters, warriors dedicated to ridding the earth of demons. Itâs also her first encounter with Jace, a Shadowhunter who looks a little like an angel and acts a lot like a jerk. Within twenty-four hours Clary is pulled into Jaceâs world with a vengeance, when her mother disappears and Clary herself is attacked by a demon. But why would demons be interested in ordinary mundanes like Clary and her mother? And how did Clary suddenly get the Sight? The Shadowhunters would like to know...
Exotic and gritty, exhilarating and utterly gripping, Cassandra Clareâs ferociously entertaining fantasy takes readers on a wild ride that they will never want to end.
