Galaxy “Alex” Stern is the most unlikely mem
ber of Yale’s freshman class. Raised in the Los An
geles hinterlands by a hippie mom\, Alex dropped o
ut of school early and into a world of shady drug-
dealer boyfriends\, dead-end jobs\, and much\, muc
h worse. In fact\, by age twenty\, she is the sole
survivor of a horrific\, unsolved multiple homici
de. Some might say she’s thrown her life away. But
at her hospital bed\, Alex is offered a second ch
ance: to attend one of the world’s most prestigiou
s universities on a full ride. What’s the catch\,
and why her?
Still searching for answers\, A
lex arrives in New Haven tasked by her mysterious

” are the well-known haunts of the rich and powerf
ul\, from high-ranking politicos to Wall Street’s
biggest players. But their occult activities are m
ore sinister and more extraordinary than any paran
oid imagination might conceive. They tamper with f
orbidden magic. They raise the dead. And\, sometim
es\, they prey on the living.
Don't miss the
highly-anticipated sequel\, Hell Bent.\n
