I’m Vita Webb, a mage at the Alius Academy, and I have a lot to stress about. Do I transfer magical combat academies to Italy to be closer to my absentee father? What should I wear to my ex-boyfriend’s party? And is my current relationship about to end? I seriously need some hang-out time with my non-magical best friend to clear my head.
Unfortunately, that isn’t going to happen any time soon. My annoying fae instructor gives me a call. He hates me, and so far he’s done everything he can to make me fail – but he’s offering me a new mission: a chance to redeem myself in the eyes of the academy… and my parents.
But the mission turns deadly way too fast. Assassins, betrayal, and fatal mistakes – and my best friend seems to be caught up in the middle of it. I need to protect her, no matter what!
