Shadowhunters: Demon Flame
"Lucy Dimitri, a noblewoman of modest means, is under pressure to find a fiancé soon to secure her future. Finding a suitable partner, however, is not as easy as finding a needle in a haystack. She is not as beautiful as her sister. Plus, with her ever-sarcastic remarks, she is always sidelined at every party.
One day, while returning home from her quest for a husband, Lucy finds a horrifying creature breaking into her house. The creature also murders her mother. When the creature attacks, her elder sister suddenly saves her with a power beyond comprehension. To make matters worse, a young man with angelic features arrives, slays the creature, and takes her to an academy.
What was the creature looking for? Why did it want to kill her? How did her sister acquire such power? Lucy must discover her true identity, for the young man believes that creatures from the underworld are hunting her or her sister. Perhaps even both."

fifteen-year-old Clary Fray heads out to the Pandemonium Club in New York City, she hardly expects to witness a murder― much less a murder committed by three teenagers covered with strange tattoos and brandishing bizarre weapons. Then the body disappears into thin air. It's hard to call the police when the murderers are invisible to everyone else and when there is nothing―not even a smear of blood―to show that a boy has died. Or was he a boy? This is Clary's first meeting with the Shadowhunters, warriors dedicated to ridding the earth of demons. It's also her first encounter with Jace, a Shadowhunter who looks a little like an angel and acts a lot like a jerk. Within twenty-four hours Clary is pulled into Jace's world with a vengeance when her mother disappears and Clary herself is attacked by a demon. But why would demons be interested in ordinary mundanes like Clary and her mother? And how did Clary suddenly get the Sight? The Shadowhunters would like to know... Less
