"She wasn't meant to be ordinary. She wasn't meant to belong anywhere-except among the creatures that trusted her without question."
Eleven-year-old Beatrice Rune has never truly belonged anywhere-raised on the edge of Hogwarts by the kindhearted but gruff gamekeeper, Hagrid, she has spent her childhood among magical creatures rather than people. With a rare and inexplicable ability to understand and communicate with beasts, she finds solace in the creatures others fear. But when she finally receives her Hogwarts letter, she quickly learns that fitting in among witches and wizards may be far more difficult than earning the trust of a Hippogriff.
Sorted into Hufflepuff, Bea hopes for a quiet year of learning spells, making friends, and avoiding trouble. But Hogwarts is full of secrets-whispers of a powerful stone hidden within the castle, a forbidden corridor guarding something monstrous, and a dark presence lurking in the shadows. When Bea stumbles upon a newly hatched dragon in Hagrid's hut, she is thrust into a dangerous game of deception, forced to protect a creature the world would see destroyed.
As her connection to magical beasts grows stronger, so too does the mystery surrounding her own past. Why do creatures respond to her in ways no one can explain? And why does the echo of a burning past haunt her dreams?
With her trusted boarhound Fang by her side, an unexpected alliance with the infamous Norbert the Norwegian Ridgeback, and a secret sanctuary hidden within the walls of Hogwarts, Bea must decide-will she remain an observer, or will she step into the unknown and embrace the magic that sets her apart?
The first installment in the Beatrice Rune series introduces a world of magic, mystery, and the unbreakable bond between a girl and the creatures who call her one of their own.
Some creatures are misunderstood. Some secrets are buried. And some destinies cannot be caged.
