Bois

Some legends are better left undisturbed.

Sixteen-year-old August never imagined that the creatures of Trinidadian folklore were real. But when his brother Kwame becomes entangled in a terrifying supernatural world, August discovers that the stories whispered across the island are more than just old superstitions.

With his brother’s soul hanging in the balance, August is thrust into a dangerous world of soucouyants, ancient magic, and powerful beings lurking beyond the boundaries of the living world.

Armed with mysterious abilities he barely understands, August must navigate uneasy alliances, uncover hidden truths, and confront enemies who are far more cunning than he could have imagined.

But as the danger escalates, August discovers that his greatest obstacle may not be the monsters hunting him, but the anger burning within himself.

Set against the vibrant backdrop of contemporary Trinidad, Bois is a Caribbean young adult fantasy adventure about brotherhood, courage, identity, and the extraordinary power of learning to control oneself.
