This book will keep you turning the page with immersive prose and clever, memorable characters. I will be dreaming about this story for a long time.  — Adrienne Young, New York Times bestselling author of Sky in the DeepA positively spellbinding debut. Smith has crafted a delectably immersive mystery packed with magic, enchantment, and an absolute powerhouse cast of women.  — Adalyn Grace, New York Times bestselling author of All the Stars and Teeth“One of the best new books of 2021.”  — Popsugar“…A fast-paced adventure that mixes one part murder investigation with two parts historical drama and a dash of romance, then puts it all in a magical boarding school full of young witches…the end result [gives] us a story that is like almost nothing else in YA fantasy right now.”  — Culturess
