Phantom Light — R.L. Wilson

Being a witch is a blessing. Learning how to use my gifts will take a miracle.My life is a train wreck. Between running from truant officers, stealing food to survive, and the stress of being one of the have-nots, it's a miracle I've made it this far.When an opportunity to attend an elite academy presents itself, I know it's a long shot, but so is surviving these streets alone. No one is more surprised than me when I'm accepted. Now, all I have to do is stay out of trouble, but within days, that proves more difficult than I expected.My roommate hates me. I piss off the headmaster. And worst of all, my best friend is found dead. That changes everything.Something dark and dangerous lurks on campus grounds. I can feel it to my core. Now, all that matters is I find the killer and try not to fall for three hot mages. They're a distraction I don't need.Welcome to my freshman year at the Witch Academy of Ash, where love, murder, and magic are unexpected parts of the curriculum!
