Living each year twice-once in her world and once in Alitheia-has made Darcy Pennington into someone who cares little for normal teenage activities. She has more important things to do, like save Alitheia from darkness and destruction. But this time, Darcy can't save Alitheia until she saves Tellius, the love of her life. A window between the worlds allows Darcy to see Tellius from her home in Chicago. But far from being reassured, she plunges into despair when she sees Tellius captured, imprisoned, and tortured. All her plans for her future life are put on hold as Darcy faces a singular goal: save Tellius, even if it means giving Tselloch something in return. Old friends tell new lies, best friends hide crucial secrets, deceptive apparitions roam the halls, and betrayal lingers around every corner. If only the Six could unveil the scroll, they might learn the greatest secret of all, before everything burns to ashes around them.
