New classes. New director. And lots of new rules.



After spending my three-week winter break under magical house arrest, I'm looking forward to returning to school. But when I get there, everything has changed.



OSA has tightened its hold on every academy and Ravencrest's new director takes the restrictions a step further, leaving me without my two closest friends. Worse, the boy who left me behind is back on campus with an even bigger surprise in tow . . . one that involves a ring.



And all that is the least of my worries.



Shifters and witches are disappearing and someone is working in the shadows, twisting magic to their whims in unnatural ways. With my own magic still out of control, my biggest issue will be figuring out who to trust. Making the wrong choice could be the last thing I ever do.
