Synopsis

In the course of a single week Zoey loses her boyfriends and most of her close friends. She is left with only two companions, both of them undead and without the crescent mark of a fledgling. At the House of Night, the High Priestess Neferet declares war on humans. Zoey believes this is wrong, but no one at the school will listen to her. As loyalties are tested and hidden motives come into the open, Zoey's time at the school takes a dangerous turn, and an ancient evil that has been buried for centuries begins to wake.
