A new semester begins at Trickery after a harrowing summer, and students struggle with gut-wrenching classes. Even worse, rumors swirl about a strange new Jabberwocky scheme. When Casey, Gloria and their friends unravel the clues, they’re pulled in directions they wouldn’t choose in their darkest dreams.
