Praefatio (Praefatio #1)

Synopsis
Seventeen-year-old Grace Ann Miller is no ordinary runaway...
After having been missing for weeks, Grace is found on the estate of international rock star Gavin Vault, half-dressed and yelling for help. Over the course of twenty-four hours Grace holds an entire police force captive with incredulous tales of angels, demons, and war; intent on saving Gavin from lockup and her family from worry over her safety.
Authorities believe that Grace is ill, suffering from Stockholm Syndrome, the victim of assault and a severely fractured mind. Undeterred, Grace reveals the secret existence of dark angels on earth, an ancient prophecy and a wretched curse steeped in Biblical myth. Grace’s claims set into motion an ages-old war, resulting in blood, death and the loss of everything that matters. But are these the delusions of an immensely sick girl, or could Grace’s story actually be true?
Praefatio is Grace’s account of weeks on the run, falling in love and losing everything but her faith. When it’s sister against brother, light versus darkness, corrupt police officers, eager doctors and accusing journalists, against one girl with nothing but her word as proof: who do you believe?

My Review 4.0 Stars!
Not many stories do I come across that I found so uniquely written that I can't immediately compare to other's that I have read. Praefatio definitely fits into the unique story category!
I love that this one is young adult and it reads well for that age group as well as anyone that enjoys a well written paranormal story!
The story seems to have two unique sides to it, what is really happening from Graces point of view and what the authorites want to believe. Grace after having been missing turns up on the lawn of a famous Rock Star. But not any rock star, no this one has been speaking to her in her head for years before she ever met him.He in turn gets accused of kidnapping and brutally beating her. Grace is determined to get the true story out, but seems struggle with anyone truly believing her.

The story is wrapped around so many secrets and lies that the reader along with Grace spends much of the story mucking it out for the true story.
The beginning of the book was slightly confusing, but once I continued on through the story, everything made so much more sense to me and I was able to truly understand what a brilliant story I was given to read.
