The Blood Key (The Wander 1) by Vaun Murphrey


ZENA SKALA is freed from an asylum at age eighteen after serving time for a crime she didn’t commit—the presumed murder of her missing brother.

Unwanted attention from the police and media ensues. Zena’s only hope resides in the deserted Skala Estate and memories from her odd past.

Secrets await in her family home. Some more dangerous than others...

My Review:     (Thanks to NetGalley) 

Warning Spoilers because the blurb gives me nothing to work with.

Confusing but interesting. Turns out that Zena is some sort of alien hiding on earth because her dad is an alien refugee. Only she doesn't know this. Her friends are also descendants of different aliens, (one knows, one doesn't). 

In a very short space of time (a couple of days?) we learn all this and more. Everyone seems to have secrets and by the end of it we still don't really know what's going on or who is good and who is bad. Seriously, her parent's are messed up, but at least she got her brother back. 

I would read the next book in the series but there better be some answers! What is the information hidden in Zena? How is it hidden/part of her? What is the floating head and why can her dad and her brother see it but no one else? Did Zena and Dom hookup or were their nights together platonic?  ;)
