"In this multiperspective fantasy, an apprentice witch is invited
to join a powerful group of young witches, each with distinct powers
and pasts,
and together they try to stop a curse that plagues their town." -
The New York Times
The Haunting Season is here and the wolves are awake...
Haelsford, Florida is a Hellmouth. Or at least, that's what Logan,
a young witch struggling to control her powers, thinks as she
arrives to begin the new school year at Mesmortes Coven Academy.
She is immediately taken under the wing of the infamous Red Three.
Iris is a deathwitch who wants nothing more than to break the
town's curse; Jailah is one of the most powerful witches at the academy
but her thirst for power may lead her down a dark path; and
Thalia, the talented greenwitch, is on the run from her religious
family and a past that still haunts her.
Fear and prejudice still fuel the uneasy truce between humans
and witches who are forced to work together when the Haunting Season
begins and Wolves rise from the swamp to feed. With this approaching,
two local boys prepare to make their first sacrifices to
the witches in exchange for protection. But as they become involved
with the witches' plan to end the Wolves' reign of terror once
and for all, old dangers lie in wait.
The cost to break the curse may be greater than any witch or human
could ever know...
