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.

Necromancer Uprising Series

As soon as she opened the door, there was nothing I could've done to prepare myself for the instant stillness in the entryway. The students' silence suffocated. Their stares cut deep. Shame beat through me with the rapid thud of my heart and flushed my skin. I kept their gazes and searched for the one face I most wanted to see, but she wasn't anywhere.


One thing I did notice was how few students milled about at such a busy time of day. Where had everyone gone?


"Don't get too close," one guy who I thought was a senior Diabolical muttered after the headmistress had passed. He shoved a nearby girl behind him. "She'll chew your face off and feed it to the ravens."


"Oh yeah," a blonde murmured, gazing at me out of the corner of her eye. "Just look at her. She's got killer written all over her."


A girl who could've been her twin nodded. "That's called filth, but I see your point."


Trial by my peers. No matter what I said or did, I would always be guilty to them.
