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.

“I thought I told you to keep an eye on her, not start arguing amongst yourselves.”


She scowled at them like the commanding lecturer that she was, and the entire room grew eerily silent.


“There is too much energy in here,” she added, gesturing towards the door. “You may all leave me to my work.”


Nobody made a move to leave. In fact, I felt as though all of my friends had turned to stone.


“I’m not going anywhere,” Booth said as he crossed his arms over his chest. His feet planted firmly on the ground as though he was just daring his mother to try to move him.
