Last spring, Dawn found her older brother dead in a pool of his blood. His killer stood over him, wearing a smile as sharp and ghastly as his knife.

Last summer, she tracked the killer down. He's a student at Necromancer Academy and part of a secret fraternity known as the Diabolicals.

This fall, Dawn will scrap her admission to the prestigious White Magic Academy. She'll trade sparkly healing charms and bright dresses for death charms and black cloaks. She'll melt into the shadowy halls of Necromancer Academy.

And she will have her revenge.

When in doubt, tell the truth. We weren't out after the dark hour, but still, we were at Headmistress Millington's mercy.


I threw an apologetic glance at Seph, who was thankfully blinking the glassiness from her eyes, and hoped she understood this was for the best. "Headmistress, Seph here was sleepwalking. I followed after her to make sure she was okay while at the same not waking her forcefully since I've read that's the wrong thing to do when the exact cause is unknown."


"Seph, is this true?" the headmistress asked, with a slightly less bitchy accusation in her tone as before.


"I..." She looked around at the trees soaring above us and shook her head as if trying to clear it. A splash of moonlight glinted on her still-wet cheeks and on the top of her bald head. "I have no idea how I got out here. I'm sorry, I...I was sleepwalking?"


"You were," I said, putting my hand on her shoulder.
