When the dead rise...

...don't tell anyone it's your fault.

Lilly is a young child when she helps her first ghost. Turns out, she's a necromancer. And there's only one place for a kid like her: The Academy.

From the first carriage ride, Lilly's life changes. Now, she faces a whole new world of challenges and dangers. And far too often, her greatest enemy is herself.

But if she can stay out of her own way, she just might have a magical seven years.

Lilly's got a lot of growing up to do...

...as long as she doesn't end up one of the dead herself.
