Just when I thought that going to a new school could be a fresh start for me, I realise I couldn’t have been more wrong. Not only has my almost-boyfriend dubbed me “The Queen of Freaks,” but it turns out I’m way more powerful than anyone could have ever imagined. That would be all well and good if everything was as it should have been at the Winterwood Academy but what most people don’t know is that there’s danger inside the walls of the Academy far worse than anything we might face outside the Wardings. Students are dying, and other than my super hot sidekick, I’m the only one who knows that there is a serial killer on the loose. When my newfound powers attract the attention of one of the most dangerous witches the Winterwood Academy has ever seen, I’m not sure if I’ll be able to make it out alive.

“Thank the Gods!” he gasped as he reached for my hand, squeezing my fingers almost as tightly as Zoe had in our bedroom. “We thought we’d lost you.”


“We very nearly did,” Merrin said in a matter-of-fact tone as she moved around the bed to come to the other side. She gracefully descended down into the chair she found there while my other friends stood wide-eyed and open-mouthed at my sudden transformation.


“Jeez, it’s like it never even happened,” Keeya exclaimed. She eyeballed me up and down as though she could barely believe what she was seeing.
