What she never knew wasn't supposed to hurt her...

Carmen DeVine feels like everything is finally coming together as she joins her older brother Andre at Winnley-Howles University. This isn't just any university. After all, all of the greatest witches and warlocks that side of the coast has completed their studies there. Now it's Carmen's turn!

There's only one problem: If she does not develop magic by the end of the first semester, she will be removed from WHU. The fact that Carmen is a dormant witch makes this even more unlikely to happen. Being born in a magical family with no magic has already been too difficult.

The students are not very friendly towards dormant witches and Carmen is near her rope's end. But everything changes when Carmen is given an old gift from her deceased parents. Now she has unexplainable magical abilities that need training!

Carmen tries to navigate her first semester at Winnley-Howles as a tragic death occurs and the presence of a hidden supernatural species becomes too apparent to ignore. Now, Carmen and her friends must figure out who is behind the attacks and how it connects to her mysterious new magic.

Join Carmen DeVine in her first page-turning year at Winnley-Howles!
