The Curse of Aldebaran
The Construction of Shadows, Book Two
Dakota Jackson
Two spirits. One body. No way out.
When Suraya and Meiling’s second year at the Academy begins with paired reconnaissance training, neither of them expects it to end in disaster. But when a mysterious agent of the Miyako family attacks, Meiling throws herself into the line of fire—and her spirit is torn from her body…only to bind itself to Suraya instead.
Now trapped together in a single body while Meiling’s empty form lies dying in the intensive care unit, the two girls are forced into an alliance neither of them wants.
But the Mikayo family is still out there, draining spirits, hunting power…and closing in on Suraya for a reason no one understands.
As Suraya is hailed as Ataru Reborn, her power grows more unstable—and more dangerous. Meanwhile, Meiling is running out of time to reclaim her body before she’s lost for good…or killed like her uncle before her.
The Curse of Aldebaran publishes June 5th.
