Gods and Monsters (Vol. 1 Daughter of Darkness)

A curse far beyond her darkest fears in the first volume of the Daughter of Darkness series. Ari feels lost and lonely. With her blue-green eyes and strange silver hair, which cannot be modified or destroyed, she has always attracted attention wherever she goes. After growing up in foster homes, all she wants is to discover where she came from and who she is. In her search for answers, she finds a message written by her long-dead mother: run away. The girl realizes she must return to her birthplace, Nova 2—the luxurious, entirely remodeled city—in New Orleans. There, she is seemingly normal. But every creature she encounters, no matter how deadly or horrific, fears her. Ari will stop at nothing to unravel the mysteries of her existence. However, some truths are too terrible and frightening to reveal.
