Vera Lupescu couldn't get into a single normal university. Hăca Micu - a crumbling Romanian fortress where they train exorcists - didn't just accept her. It claimed her.
Every hallway hides a secret. Every lesson flirts with the afterlife. And Vera is the school's walking chaos event: a Goth Barbie who's somehow still alive after nuking a demon and singeing off her own eyebrows before breakfast. Under the sarcasm and the smudged eyeliner, though, something is waking up - and it wants more than soul-cakes.
The demons aren't even her biggest problem. That'd be Luca - the boy with an illegal smirk and the eyes of someone who's met the devil personally and asked for a signed photo. Arrogant, suspicious, and somehow the only thing standing between Vera and total supernatural collapse.
As if one insufferably hot rival wasn't enough, she's also caught the attention of Azrael - a Prince of the Ninth Circle who considers kidnapping a perfectly acceptable first date. Between dodging invisible chains in obsidian palaces and faceplanting into laundry bins back at school, Vera's learning fast that the line between Queen and an anchor is a lot thinner than anyone bothered to warn her about.
