The Gathering chronicles Maya, a girl who lives in a very small town on Vancouver Island where strange things are beginning to happen. Maya is determined to get to the bottom of mysteries that vary from the captain of the swim team who drowns mysteriously, mountain lions start gathering around Maya’s home and won’t leave, and Daniel starts getting a bad feeling around certain people and objects. Now Rafe, the dangerous, new bad boy in town, is interested in Maya’s odd, paw-shaped birthmark. Sound like something you want to read? Well, enter today!
