Book Description
Before Layla Holden can start her freshman year at Coltin High, she receives an unexpected invitation to attend a private school she's never heard of. She doesn't hesitate to accept, eager to escape the close-minded small town where she's been taunted and teased for seeing otherworldly creatures. Anywhere has to be better than home. Yet she's only permitted to go if she brings her twin sister Sabine along for the ride. Inside the walls of the castle-like fortress on the isolated campus, the girls find many secrets and hidden mysteries. Layla's never shied from challenges and is determined to pass her first year. However, with more unusual and bigger monsters lurking at the school, she struggles to keep her ability a secret. On top of the pressure to succeed in the competitive school, she also attracts the attention of a new student, Flynn Madsen. He's not the only one who's curious about her, but he seems to have the same gift of sensing these supernatural beings. In a new school, it's impossible to know who to trust and what to believe. By keeping her own secrets closely guarded, Layla has to have faith in herself. Not her bookish roomie, not the cute new boy who seems too curious about her. Because sometimes holding your own secrets can overpower the need to unravel others--a fine balance of controlling your fears or letting them destroy you.

Riverside, in England. Four thirty on an unremarkable afternoon. An abandoned, dilapidated school at the end of Silverbell Street. As twenty-five-year-old Amabel will soon discover, this is no ordinary building - inside, the desks are all still in their place and chalk dust hangs in the air. All the clocks, from the one above the entrance to the grandfather clock in the hall, have stopped at nine nineteen, on an unknown day in an unknown year. What happened in that old school? What event was so earth-shattering to make time stop within its walls? And more importantly, who is that boy in school uniform that appears to Amabel, claiming to be a student at a school that hasn't been open in years?
