As Mirella enters her last year at Magical Hunters Academy, she has no idea that the trouble lying in wait might also make it the last year of her life.

Everything finally seems to be going Mirella's way. Her classes are amazing, she's finally found her spot in the magical world, and she might finally be willing to say three little words to her boyfriend.

There's just one massive unknown—who or what murdered her parents. Is the entity alive, and if so, will it realize that eliminating the Sharpe bloodline requires killing again?

Will Mirella survive her toughest test yet? Or will the executioner-in-training be the one executed?
