Description
Regent Academy has a long and storied history in Winslow, Vermont, as does the forest that surrounds it. For seventeen-year-old Douglas Jones, the school's reputation for molding teens into leaders is just another layer of complexity to navigate. When a student is murdered, and his existence seems to be erased from memory, Douglas sets out to uncover the truth. As he delves deeper into the mystery, Douglas awakens a horror hidden within the forest, unearthing secrets that have been buried for centuries. A vengeful creature demands blood as payment for a debt over 300 years in the making, threatening to consume Winslow in darkness. With his determination to uncover the truth, Douglas may finally grasp the power he's always felt was missing - but at what cost? Power can be a corrupting force, and Douglas soon finds himself entangled in a high-octane mystery of murder and magic that will test his resolve and his sense of self.
