Shutter by Courtney Alameda
Micheline Helsing is a tetrachromat -a girl who sees the auras of the undead in a prismatic spectrum. As one of the last descendants of the Van Helsing lineage, she has trained since childhood to destroy monsters both corporeal and spiritual: the corporeal undead go down by the bullet, the spiritual undead by the lens. With an analogue SLR camera as her best weapon, Micheline exercises ghosts by capturing their spiritual energy on film. She's aided by her crew: Oliver, a techno-whiz and the boy who developed her camera's technology; Jude, who can predict death; and Ryder, the boy Micheline has known and loved forever. When Micheline and the boys are infected with a curse, she learns that she has a week to save them, or they will die.Courtney Alameda, a former bookseller and librarian, now devotes her time to creating young adult thrillers and horror stories. Shutter, her debut novel, was nominated for a Bram Stoker Award and praised by School Library Journal as a highlight in the category. She has a bachelor's degree in English literature with a concentration in creative writing. She grew up in Northern California and now lives in Utah with her husband, a library, and a tiny five-pound cat with a big personality.
