Step into the shadowed halls of Hellebore Technical Institute, where gifted students harbor world-ending powers and nothing is as it seems. When faculty transform into ravenous monsters on graduation day, protagonist Alessa Li and her classmates are forced into the library's depths, where survival demands an unspeakable price. This deluxe hardcover edition features striking cobalt blue sprayed edges and delivers the dark academia horror that fans of A Deadly Education crave—blending body horror, systemic betrayal, and sardonic wit through dual timelines that unravel how an exclusive academy became a nightmare. From USA Today bestselling author Cassandra Khaw comes a visceral tale of trauma, power, and the lengths we go to survive.
