This book is set at Blackwood Academy, a remarkable boarding school on the edge of the hereafter.

The chosen student is given a choice: graduate and join Blackwood's magical elite, or risk the leap to the Other Side.
The main characters are determined to win. Wren fights for her place against her rival Augustine, while Irene follows her own rules and is even willing to betray her friend Masika. Olivier has partially given up the fight, but he will not allow Emilio to cross over to the Other Side.
