Description
Regent Academy has a long and storied history in the small town of Winslow, Vermont. But so does the vast forest that surrounds its campus. While the school is known for molding teens into world leaders, its past is far more nefarious--and even more entangled with the forest--than anyone would suspect.
Seventeen-year-old Douglas wants nothing to do with Regent's king-making; he's just trying to forget his previous life and survive his present. But...
