How it starts
You don't choose the Academy. The Academy chooses you. When the most dangerous man she's ever met arrives on her farm with a death sentence disguised as an invitation, the protagonist's life is turned upside down. Her younger brother has been selected for a secret magical school, a place so perilous that survival isn't guaranteed. With her family threatened, she takes her brother's place, disguising herself as a boy to infiltrate the Academy. Here, magic and monsters are real, assassins lurk, and the dead rise. She must navigate deadly trials and hidden identities to protect her family and survive. For fans of 'The Umbrella Academy' and 'The Hunger Games'.
