Chaos. Confusion. Death. The return of the wolves. The demon in the forest. The lump in her throat, as she watched. Ae-ra wanted to run, run as far as her feet could take her.
----
Student at Lycan University, Kang Ae-ra is sent as an exchange student, to her utter reluctance, to a school of secrets. The infamous, Misthaven Academy. The co-ed school of the rival. A place where each Mythical raced for superiority, perfection.
In the midst of a seemingly normal trimester, her encounter with a strange lord leaves her in a daze. Stories, secrets, memories and lies unravel as she finally realizes the reality of this so-called prestigious academy.
A genetically unique but emotionally lost teenager must figure out who she is within her mixed-up, warring world of Shifters and Wolfstalkers.
*****
It wasn't Maddie's choice to be born a half-breed, half Shifter, half Wolfstalker -- a hunter of Shifters -- and it wasn't her choice to keep her identity a secret. But after trying to attend high school like any normal sixteen-year-old, things quickly spiral south when her Stalker uncle finds out about her and catapults her out of anonymity and into the awareness--or possibly the crosshairs--of The Order of the Wolfstalker. Maddie must think fast and figure out a way to keep herself and her family safe, or risk losing everything. Including her life.
