In order to save the future, she has to uncover the past.

Sophia thought the worst had happened when her grandfather was poisoned and died right in front of her eyes. Then she found out her cousin had been behind his death—and others. And now, to get back what is hers, she has to find answers that even the gods have forgotten, if they ever knew them at all. Worse, she has to find a place that even the Arcane and gods believe is only a myth, and hope that it holds the key to freeing everyone imprisoned by her cousin’s will.

As the world is battered by one man’s greed, Sophia, Lucas, and a small group of friends hunt for those answers. They traverse Egypt, the wilds of Alaska, and a library even more secretive than the Athenaeum, all to find the one thing that might stop her cousin’s madness. Because it’s no longer just the fate of the Athenaeum that hangs in the balance.
