Dead To Me

Thornwood Academy is everything I could never wish for and less.

In the short time since father dearest dumped me here, I've collected a couple of murder accusations, a deadly witch bond with one guy, and a thirst for the blood of another. Good grief. What next?

I'm neck-deep in investigations to clear my name, and as I peel away each layer of facade from town and academy life I discover more shady connections between supes and humans.

The local business mogul and his vampire attorney. The mysterious talismans bestowed on the sons of influential families. Shifters with a vendetta against almost everyone. It's the murder-mystery gift that keeps on giving.

This witch bond with Rowan? Disaster. Our lives and magic are forever linked, and the bond unleashed something terrifying. Not only the psychopathic hybrid I’ve suppressed, but something infinitely worse—my mother's gentler half. Emotions. Empathy. Occasional kind gestures. A nightmare.

Then there’s the small issue with Grayson. Following one unintentional bite of his hand, I’m craving the blood of a vampire who's fixated on tasting mine. And Leif? I’m not-so-eagerly waiting to see what twist of fate might bring me closer to him too as I help him with his shifter problem.

Which is all distracting me from what’s important. Death. One more murder and the town officially has a serial killer. I’ve an inkling who’s pulling the strings, and another killing would be disastrous for me and the stability of the supernatural world. And I suppose the third murder wouldn't be the best outcome for the victim either.

As Thornwood Academy's own dark and deadly detective, I need to crack this case before Dorian’s council crumbles and a war begins. Then I can solve the problem created by my new and confusing relationships with the guys. If they survive long enough.
