Elowen Cross has never belonged anywhere. Foster homes. Empty promises. A life spent invisible to everyone except the people who made it worse. So when a scholarship arrives to the most prestigious academy she has ever heard of — full ride, no questions asked — she does not hesitate. She should have asked questions. Primori Academy is not what it seems. The students are not what they seem. And Elowen — who has spent seventeen years believing she is ordinary — is about to find out she is the furthest thing from it. It takes dying to figure that out. When she comes back from the dead something inside her wakes up. Something old. Something hungry. Something that makes the most dangerous creatures in the academy take a very large step back. They call her kind a myth. They call her kind extinct. They are wrong on both counts. Now Elowen is navigating a world she never knew existed — a castle full of vampires, demons, werewolves, fae and sirens who all have one thing in common. They are afraid of her. They have every right to be.
