The Light We Found
Betrayed. Poisoned. Left for dead. Kenna's life shatters in a single, blood-soaked evening. What was supposed to be an innocent gathering around the fire turns into a brutal act of treachery as her closest friends-people she trusted with her life-tear everything away from her. Poison laces her veins, a blade slashes through her sister's throat, and the last thing Kenna remembers is the taste of blood and the coldness of betrayal. But death isn't the end. When she awakens, gasping for breath and clawing her way back from oblivion, she finds herself in the company of three peculiar students and a powerful witch. Confused but alive, Kenna learns that she's been touched by something dark and ancient-something that shouldn't be possible. Her sister, however, remains buried by the lake, a reminder of what was stolen from her. Determined to survive, Kenna forms an uneasy alliance with the witch and her students, seeking refuge in their strange world of hidden magic and forbidden secrets.

The girl they tried to kill is back, and this time, she won't fall so easily.
