Description
Seventeen-year-old Lucinda Price arrives at Sword & Cross, an ominous reform school, after a mysterious accident she cannot adequately explain. Isolated by strict rules and pursued by the dark shadows she has seen since childhood, she becomes fascinated by Daniel, a hostile classmate who nevertheless feels impossibly familiar. Another student, Cam, offers a more welcoming attraction, but Daniel’s pull leads Lucinda toward a supernatural history larger than the school. He is a fallen angel, and their connection belongs to a recurring cycle in which they find and lose one another. As opposing forces gather around them, the romance becomes a struggle over fate, memory, and whether this version of their story can escape its established pattern.
