After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things: I’d find the cure for what ravaged her―and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me.

Four years later, I receive an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, a secluded, prestigious school on an island off the coast of Maine. Legends say it’s haunted by the exiled souls of long-dead patients.

And when the truth surfaces, we may be the ones to resurrect Dracadia’s most depraved secret.
