But lifeâs no easier at the school, where secrets abound. What does Jia, Fortâs tutor, know about the attacks? Why does Rachel, master of destructive magic, think Fort is out to destroy the school? And why is Fort seeing memories of an expelled girl every time he goes to sleep? If Fort doesnât find out whatâs hiding within the Oppenheimer School, more attacks will come, and this time, nothing will stop them!
