In a world divided into kinetics and inerts, Marlowe Thorne's nothing more than a criminal... Seventeen-year-old petty criminal Marlowe Thorne faces a choice: a custodial sentence in a young offender's institution or a scholarship at Arcane Academy. Seems a no-brainer, except the Academy stands for everything Marlowe despises. Their graduates are the ones who go on to work at the Agency, the body that regulates post-ozone society and the reason she ended up a thief on the streets to begin with. Marlowe's skeptical of the offer—after all, she's almost an inert, so what do kinetics want with her? But thinking anything's better than juvenile hall, she accepts, only to be there less than a week before one of her roommates turns up dead. As Marlowe tries to solve the mystery surrounding her friend's death, the infuriating, arrogant Culhane cautions her to let it go. But is he warning her out of concern...or because he's connected to the dark, deadly conspiracy she's stumbled into? Fans of Elizabeth Hunter and Linsey Hall will thrill to Marlowe Thorne's quest set fifty years in England's future. Scroll up and one-click today to join this questionable heroine in her paranormal academy romance adventure!
