Oficiální anotace (CZ): Šestnáctiletá Lila se narodila do rodiny senzibilů a jasnovidců. Ve svém osudu má napsáno, že až políbí svou pravou lásku, dotyčný zemře. Lila se proto rozhodne, že nikdy nikoho líbat nebude. Kluci ji nezajímají a hlavně ne ti z Havraního bratrstva, party bohatých studentů místní elitní školy. S těmi jsou jenom potíže. Jenže když ve své první jasnovidné vizi spatří Ganseyho, vůdce Havraního bratrstva, který má během příštího roku zemřít, nedokáže ho vyhnat z hlavy. Když se s ním pak setká tváří v tvář, polibek smrti se stane reálnou hrozbou...
Oficiální anotace (EN): "There are only two reasons a non-seer would see a spirit on St. Mark's Eve," Neeve said. "Either you're his true love . . . or you killed him."
It is freezing in the churchyard, even before the dead arrive.
Every year, Blue Sargent stands next to her clairvoyant mother as the soon-to-be dead walk past. Blue herself never sees them-not until this year, when a boy emerges from the dark and speaks directly to her.
His name is Gansey, and Blue soon discovers that he is a rich student at Aglionby, the local private school. Blue has a policy of staying away from Aglionby boys. Known as Raven Boys, they can only mean trouble.
But Blue is drawn to Gansey, in a way she can't entirely explain. He has it all-family money, good looks, devoted friends-but he's looking for much more than that. He is on a quest that has encompassed three other Raven Boys: Adam, the scholarship student who resents all the privilege around him; Ronan, the fierce soul who ranges from anger to despair; and Noah, the taciturn watcher of the four, who notices many things but says very little.
For as long as she can remember, Blue has been warned that she will cause her true love to die. She never thought this would be a problem. But now, as her life becomes caught up in the strange and sinister world of the Raven Boys, she's not so sure anymore.
