<b>An impossible truth. An impossible love. <P></b><P>After a summer spent reclaiming her sanity and trying to forget the boy she fell in love with--the boy who must not exist, cannot exist, because she knows that he is dead--Abbey returns to Sleepy Hollow, ready to leave the ghosts of her past behind. She throws herself into her schoolwork, her perfume-making, and her friendship with Ben, her cute and funny lab partner, who just might be her ticket to getting over Caspian once and for all. <P>But Abbey can never get over Caspian, and Caspian has no choice but to return to her side, for Caspian is a Shade, and Abbey is his destiny. They are tied not only to each other, but also to the town of Sleepy Hollow, and to the famous legend that binds their fates--a legend whose dark truths they are only beginning to guess....<P>&ldquo;Spectacular! <I>The Hollow</i> keeps you reading from beginning to end without coming up for air.&rdquo; --<b>L.J. Smith</b>, bestselling author of The Vampire Diaries and Night World
