Clary barely expects to witness a murder—let alone a murder committed by three teenagers with bizarre tattoos and weapons. At that point, the subject's body simply disappears. It is difficult to report a crime when the perpetrators are entirely hidden and there is no physical evidence of death. Or was he a young man?

This is the first time Clary has met the Shadowhunters, who fight to rid the earth of evil spirits. It is her first time meeting Jace, and who looks like an angel and acts a lot like a demon does. within twenty-four hours, Clary's mom disappears and Clary herself is attacked by a demon. However, why would demons want ordinary people like Clary and her mother? And how did she became able to see things that she didn't notice before? Shadowhunters are curious about...

Enthraging and scintillate, action-packed and riveting, Clare's wondrously and riveting fantasy tour de force draws the reader in for the duration.
