This is me, your fairly non-threatening host for this part of the hunt. I’m Kady Cross, and I write a bunch of stuff � currently about ghosts. I have 4 cats, love the color pink, and have more makeup than anyone could ever possibly use. Still, I’m going to try. Somewhere on this page, I’ve hidden my favorite number. It will appear in TEAL. That’s the number you need to add up with all the others on Team TEAL in order to have a chance at winning. Also, somewhere on this hunt, I’ve hidden a playlist for SISTERS OF SALT AND IRON, my newest book (released today!)

“I have a very visual imagination, and I’m very interested in graphic art, illustration, and comic books. For a while I wanted to make 13 Days of Midnight into a graphic novel, although I don’t think I’m really a good enough artist to draw professionally yet, so I wrote it out as a regular novel. Although I don’t think that what a character looks like is the most important thing about them, when designing an unusual group of characters like the ghosts Luke inherits, I wanted more of a handle on what they looked like, so I made a lot of drawings of them. These are the Judge and the Prisoner, two of the less pleasant ghosts that Luke meets. I always liked designing villains and I had a lot of fun with these two characters.�
