Following her graduation from high school as a junior, American actress Conor Leslie began landing guest spots on television shows before securing her first major role in the 2012 film Chained as the potential first victim of a serial killer's protégé. Leslie has since primarily focused on the small screen, most prominently portraying courtesan Sabine in Discovery's historical adventure Klondike (2014), spaceship computer Natasha in Yahoo!'s sci-fi comedy Other Space (2015), and political aide Sarah Ellis in Fox's drama Shots Fired. She also appeared as the half-sister of protagonist Juliana Crane in the first three seasons of the Amazon series The Man in the High Castle from 2015 to 2018. In 2018, Leslie gained new recognition for being the first to play DC superheroine Donna Troy in live-action on the DC Universe original Titans and returned to the series for 2019's second season.
With the sweeping romance of Passenger and the dark fantasy edge of This Savage Song, this standout YA contemporary fantasy debut from Vanessa Len, is the first in a planned trilogy. It should have been the perfect summer. Sent to stay with her late mother’s eccentric family in London, sixteen-year-old Joan is determined to enjoy herself. She loves her nerdy job at the historic Holland House, and when her super cute co-worker Nick asks her on a date, it feels like everything is falling into place. But she soon learns the truth. Her family aren’t just eccentric: they’re monsters, with terrifying, hidden powers. And Nick isn’t just a cute boy: he’s a legendary monster slayer, who will do anything to bring them down. As she battles Nick, Joan is forced to work with the beautiful and ruthless Aaron Oliver, heir to a monster family that hates her own. She’ll have to embrace her own monstrousness if she is to save herself, and her family. Because in this story . . . . . . she is not the hero.
