City of Bones follows the story of a fifteen-year-old girl named Clary Fray, who lives in an old brownstone in the borough of Brooklyn, in New York City. She's quite a normal girl. Until, one day when she and her friend Simon Lewis are in Pandemonium, an all-ages club that Clary and he frequent. Something quite horrifying happens: Clary sees three teenagers murder a blue-haired boy. Then, the blue-haired boy disappears. Shaken, Clary returns home. The next day, one of the teenagers, a handsome blonde boy named Jace, visits Clary again. At this time, her mother calls her and tells her not to come home. The call ends abruptly. Her mother has been kidnapped. Clary returns home, and promptly attacked by a Ravener demon. They eat humans, and look similar to the lizard mutts in Mockingjay. Clary discovers she is a member of the Shadow World, and more specifically, a nephilim. They are the descendants of humans and angels, guardians of the mortal world. They kill demons and rogue Downworlders, which include fey, werewolves, vampires, warlocks, etc. Clary must go on a quest with these Shadowhunters to save her mother. And more specifically, the world.
