Thorne Evers has lived in the Coven of Neoma all her life, but a week before her seventeenth birthday, her life in the coven shatters. A great evil, that had once been banished, is brought back after a spell gone wrong. And it's after her. In an attempt to keep her and the rest of Neoma safe, Thorne unwillingly decides to enroll at Aristide, a small private school, to hide among mortals. But living with a bunch of mortals means no magic. Thorne must learn how to live without using her magic or risk being caught–maybe even killed.
