Waverly and Champ have a romantic dinner planned, but Waverly gets stood up. Luckily, a friendly redhead saves her from having her pride crushed in front of a bunch of strangers.

Waverly is in her first year at Sussex University in Brighton. She's finally found a place to stay, a cosy room in a typical Brighton terrace house in Sussex, England. Little does she know her education will extend to her American flatmate, Nicole...

Nicole has felt different since she moved to Purgatory, The Ghostriver Triangle The full moon changed the sweet Nicole into a beast, and she wasn't able to control it, yet. She kept it a secret for Waverly as long as possible, but she could already know Waverly would be too stubborn to stay home when she told her to.
