  Grace had heard the myth that told of how Darlington Hills was the place where the devil fell. She didn't believe it until her father uncovered the Book of Bolabogg. Now all hell has broken loose around her. The forces of good and evil do battle, each wanting the knowledge and power the ancient manuscript holds and young Grace is trapped in the middle.

You know how it ends. Now, learn how it all began in this all-new prequel to the hit series Dead @ 17!

In the war between Heaven and Hell, it is mankind who now has possession of a great weapon. The Book of Bolabogg carries within its flesh bindings the secrets of all creation and possibly the means to destroy the demon himself. When it is discovered in the small quaint town of Darlington Hills, it brings with it an unspeakable evil that will forge the destines of a group of men who may be Earth's last, best hope. Caught in the middle is young Grace True, whose life will forever be changed by an escalating conflict beyond her control.
