The Soulkeepers. The Soulkeepers Series, #1

Sometimes the end is just the beginning. Fifteen-year-old Jacob Lau should have died in the car crash. Instead, he woke up broken, confused, and haunted by a single question-why can't anyone find his mother's body? Shipped across the country to live with an uncle he barely knows, Jacob's world spirals into mystery and danger. That's when he meets Dr. Abigail Silva, a striking and enigmatic stranger with powers beyond anything Jacob thought possible.
She claims she can help him uncover the truth about his mom's disappearance-but only if he agrees to her impossible demand: train as a Soulkeeper, a warrior sworn to defend human souls from the terrifying creatures that hunt them. Jacob isn't a hero. He never asked for this fight. But with every battle, every lie, and every dark secret revealed, he's drawn deeper into a world where trust is fragile, monsters are real, and the truth may cost him everything.
