Clara Nox. Now There Are Monsters

The world didn’t end that day. But Clara Nox’s life, as she knew it, did.

Clara is 13 years old, lives in New York, and goes to such an elite school that even the principal despises her with elegance. Her daily life was as exciting as a slice of toast without butter. Until a rumor began to spread: the end of the world was coming.

And then came the blackouts. The chaos. And the monsters.

Yes, monsters. Real ones. Though almost no one seemed to notice them. Clara did, of course.

With no instructions and more fear than she likes to admit, Clara will have to learn to face a world that is no longer the same. And this is only the beginning.

Here comes Clara Nox, the first middle grade series by Isabel Álvarez. A thrilling adventure set in New York, where a girl with a dark legacy must choose between light and darkness, while facing monsters and solving mysteries—one of them being her own identity.
