This is one intriguing YA fantasy.  How can a normal (usually) young girl get tracked by a monster that only appears to be human, and find another, very much like him, who is willing to come to her rescue?But there are problems with this knight.  He is dangerous to touch; he has the personality of a troll; and he is very far from human.  Furthermore, he has a past that includes murder.  Was he the perpetrator?Then even stranger things begin to happen, and Rose finds herself knee-deep in a world she never knew existed.Not one page of this adventure is boring.  You’ll be unable to put the book down.  You’ll follow Rose as she tries to avoid monsters that are only visible sometimes, and you’ll be amazed as the unseen world around her becomes visible.With excellent characterization, Roozenboom takes us into this world, making it believable, desirable, and horrible all at the same time.  As Rose stumbles along, you’ll be cheering for her, agonizing for her, and hoping she gets the answers she is so determined to find.The one thing that remains, after all is said and done, is a taste of silver.
