Overview
"When Vera receives a scholarship to an elite tech school, she thinks the hardest part will be making friends. Turns out there are darker things at Morton Tech. Evil things worse than bullies. Like demons. After a face-stealing demon only Vera can see appears, she realizes she's the only one who can stop it. She's going to have to use all her wits, and the confidence she's gained from living with a facial difference and Osteogenesis Imperfecta (""Brittle Bone Disease""), to save her friends. Will she find the strength to face her own fears and learn what it means to be a hero? Or will the demon escape the school and wreak havoc on the world? Join Vera Warden on her adventures as she confronts demons, ghosts, mean teachers, and maybe even a few bullies. Vera Warden and the Two-Faced Demon is the thrilling first book in a new creepy series. If you like tough girls, chilling secrets, and wild adventures, then you'll love J. Rose's goosebump-raising mystery."

Author Information
"J. Rose is the author of the Twins of Orion series and the Vera Warden series for young readers. Since finishing her first novel at age fifteen, she continues to have a passion for telling stories that make a difference. She is a trained opera singer. and she holds a black belt in Tae Kwon Do and studies other martial art styles for research, including Jujitsu. Connect with J. Rose on Twitter and Instagram at @JRoseBooks, at www.facebook.com/JRoseBooks, and at www.JRoseBooks.com. Suzanne Barbetta is a professionally trained actress based in New York City. She's earned a Voice Arts Award, AudioFile Earphones Awards, and an Audie nomination. As a kid she was a bookish, bossy, rambunctious Jersey girl who loved performing, dinosaurs, dragons, and classic cars. (If she'd been athletic, she would have been a tomboy . . . instead, she was a mischief-magnet.) At ten years old, already a voracious reader, she discovered her little sister ""hated reading."" So she pulled out her dog-eared Nancy Drews and read them aloud to her, (avoiding a stint in juvie and sowing the seeds of a career narrating audiobooks). When not recording, this still-geeky-girl loves scuba-diving reefs and wrecks, watching Giants football, and dreaming of flying dragons."
