Seventeen-year-old Evangeline is about to discover what is different about her. She has had suspicions all along, but it is not until an aunt she never knew about turns up that her life tumbles into an adventure. Now, she is in the northern wood… a place where nothing is as it seems, where the ancient house of Dragonspire shifts its rooms around, and an unknown evil lurks nearby.
All she wants are answers to her questions.
If she is not a witch, what is she?
What is the creature that continues to follow her to and from school?
Why has her mother never told her about her aunt until now?
Has the great inventor, Nikola Tesla, anything to do with it?
And most of all, what is really in the northern woods?
