It Ends in Fire

As a child, Alka Chelrazi witnessed her parents' brutal murder at the hands of Wizards.  Now, she's deep undercover at the most prestigious school of magic in the Republic.  Blackwater Academy, a place where status is everything, where decadent galas end in blood-spattered duels, where every student has their own agenda.  To survive, Alka will have to lie, cheat, kill, and use every trick in her spy's toolkit-and for the first time in her life, she will have to make friends in order to recruit the misfits and outcasts into her motley rebellion.  But as she draws closer to victory-to vengeance-she sinks deeper into danger, with suspicious professors and murderous rivals seeking the traitor in their midst.  Can she destroy the twisted game. . .without becoming a part of it?
