  Briar’s gone from being an aimless foster child to being a witch at Academy of
  Ancients. She’s not just any ol’ witch, she’s one with two elements. And not
  only that, she’s one of a kind, evidently.
  
  
  So rare that she’s sought after by a paranormal military cadre.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Zach can’t reach his brothers. His efforts to keep Briar safe keep him knee-
  deep in trouble. And as if that’s bad enough, he’s hell-bent on trespassing on
  property that Academy has deemed off limits. He wants to explore an abandoned
  and condemned building nicknamed the cathedral.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  And in the meantime, at Academy of Ancients, more students are disappearing.
  Carter’s pretty much zombified, and there’s this general who seems to have it
  out for Briar.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Can’t a teen witch get a break?
