Excerpt from the book:

http://kaytinikaraet.com/What was most disturbing about Slithers was not their glowing, multicolored eyes, or the razor-sharp claws that extended from the tips of their hands, or even the crooked, slithery walk they employed as they stalked their prey. The most disturbing about Slithers was how human they looked, there were even some people who thought that they had been human at one time.

Niko didn't bother theorizing about monsters. It made them easier to kill.
The one she faced was a study of contrasts, with pale skin and black hair. It pulled up short; its head tilted quizzically as it regarded her. She was not following the usual script long established between Slithers and humans. She was supposed to be running, perhaps while screaming ineffectively, and it was supposed to pursue her in a glorious chase.

She grinned at it, lifting her hand in a wave. She let the bat slide free from her sleeve, a week ago she'd driven a large nail through the wood, giving it an extra kick.

The further she diverged from the script the more puzzled the Slither looked, its mismatched eyes sliding between her and the weapon in her hand. Then it offered up a jerky shrug, food was food even if it was acting strange.

It attacked.

Detaching itself from the shadows and it ran toward her on all fours. Its claws tore up chunks of the sidewalk. An inhuman shriek blasted out of a mouth full of long narrow teeth. It leapt over rain filled holes, its eyes only on her and the place where her ribs tried to shield her rapidly pounding heart.
Niko stood her ground, eyes narrowed, bat raised. 

The thing came closer, its excited pants the only sound filling her ears.
It neared, came closer, then just close enough. She swung a scream of her own filling the night.

Niko missed.

Plot Summary:


One can live for several weeks without food but only a few days without water, a fact seventeen year old Niko is only too aware of as she struggles to provide for her two younger brothers in a post apocalyptic landscape where the rain burns like acid, food grows increasingly scarce and any Slither that crosses her path is laid low before it can sink its teeth into her. 

Then one night everything she'd ever worked for and loved is consumed by a raging fire, leaving her with one brother missing, the other dead and herself gravely injured. 

She's rescued by the Rose Circle, a rogue group of Slither hunters. They sneak her into Amaryllis City, a decadent metropolis where those able to pay the exorbitant entrance fee live a life of relative ease.
But for Niko, Amaryllis City is not the haven she grew up believing it would be and her unique abilities as a Slither hunter make her a particularly visible target to a city with hopes of experimentation, replication and other nasty bits. 

All Niko ever wanted to do was find her baby brother, but that's proving to be harder than expected.
