About the Book

Magic meets dark academia at a New York boarding school that’s hidden from mortal eyes. When a student is killed over priceless treasure, the Descendants of the Zodiac assemble a crew to avenge their classmate's murder and heist back what's rightfully theirs. Perfect for fans of A Deadly Education and Legendborn. “A rollicking heist adventure.” —Amélie Wen Zhao, New York Times bestselling author of Song of Silver, Flame Like Night At a secret Manhattan boarding school, the Descendants of the Chinese zodiac have hidden away since the source of their magic—the twelve zodiac statues—was vandalized and lost to time. Thus, a curse befell the Descendants, and they’ve lived as creatures of darkness . . . until now. When the lost statues suddenly resurface and a powerful classmate is found dead, all signs point to foul play from the fae. The Descendants finally have the chance to take back what's rightfully theirs and break the curse. But to pull off this deadly heist, they must assemble an elite crew: THE VAMPIRE: After a century of burning hunger, Evangeline is out for blood. THE SHAPE-SHIFTER: Nicholas yearns to restore justice to his people—and make peace with his past. THE MORTAL: Alice seeks the truth of her mysterious heritage, and this mission may be the key. THE WEREWOLF: Tristan will do anything to break free from the monstrous wolf inside. Only these four have the power to save the Descendants, but the wrath of the fae waits at every turn. One wrong move and the fate of their kind will come crashing down. . . .
