Briar always dreamed of attending the Temple School of Thaumaturgy, the elite boarding school that’s produced the most CEOs and Prime Ministers in history, long rumoured to be magical. Briar’s best friend, Seb, just wanted them to stay together forever.
When Seb gets an acceptance letter and Briar doesn’t, their relationship is shattered – until, at eighteen, Briar secures a temp job sorting through the magical junk in Temple’s attic, and discovers that quiet, sensitive Seb, the boy they once loved more than anything else in the world, has become the villain.
Dark academia meets fantasy in this timely page-turner about a student who fails to gain admission to the UK’s only school of magic but then finds their way there years later and unearths the ugly secrets simmering behind its ancient walls – unmissable for fans of Babel by R.F. Kuang and Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo.
