Werewolves, zombies, and vampires don't frighten fifteen-year-old Jenny Hatchet. A new polygamous stepfather, Gomer Obadiah Darken, who has tricked her mother into marriage, terrifies her. In this young adult trilogy, Jenny must pit her wits and skills against a cabal of fanatics who take underage girls as brides in "celestial marriages for eternity." After the sudden death of her father, Jenny's world changes in a shocking way when she, her younger sister, and her beautiful, hapless mother are lured away to a bizarre compound in northern Idaho. Exceptional at math, running 10K races, and trained in electrical work by her father, Jenny concocts a desperate plan to fry the saints as she devises a way out of the electrically charged fence of the compound. The Land of Nod, the first of the Land trilogy, ends with Jenny's escape to a nearby reservation where her romantic interest, Josh Barnes, also a captive in the compound, leaves her with an unusual family and more mysteries to solve.
