#ambys2026 Saint Angela's Academy was supposed to be a place of faith, discipline, and learning. Instead, it became a pit full of secrets. When private investigator and former student, Theolinda Brady begins asking questions about the death of a student, she uncovers a trail leading back decades-through suspicious accidents, buried evidence, and the powerful women who rule the academy from the shadows.
