Allie Sheridan's world is falling apart. Her brother's run away from home. Her parents ignore her. And she's just been arrested. Again. This time, her parents have had enough. They send Allie to Cimmeria Academy - far away from her London friends. The school is beautiful - filled with gorgeous, ultra-wealthy teens who travel by private jet and were raised by nannies. Allie has never felt more of an outsider. Instead of hating boarding school though, Allie begins to feel happy. She's slowly making friends. And there's Carter, a brooding loner with whom she feels an instant connection.

On a stormy night, a young boy takes his dog for a walk. His ever-curious pup digs up a bone at the cemetery...and now the bone's owner wants it back!

In the last year, Allie has survived three arrests, two breakups, and one family breakdown. The only bright point has been her new life at Cimmeria Academy. It's the one place she's felt she belongs. And the fact that it's brought the brooding Carter West into her life hasn't hurt either.... But the exclusive school's cloistered walls are about to prove more dangerous than she could ever have imagined. The students and teachers are under threat, and Allie's family - from her powerful grandmother to her missing brother - is at the center of the storm.

Cimmeria Academy's solid walls have protected the children of the British elite for centuries. But now those walls are beginning to crumble. And if they fall, Allie Sheridan knows nothing can save her. A powerful and dangerous secret society - one that controls not just the school but the government, the media, and corporations - is turning on itself. Allie's grandmother still clings to power but everyone knows her time at the top is ending. Next in line is Nathaniel, who killed Allie's friends. If he takes over, all is lost.
