Crash Course

If the course load doesn't kill her, one of her teachers might.Having passed the Entrance Exam, sixteen-year-old Kacie DeLuca is ready to buckle down and learn to be a true Hunter. But the Academy's headmistress has hired a new instructor—a former member of the Lusus Naturae, the self-described "freaks of nature" with dark plans to subjugate humanity. When a student's mutilated body is discovered on campus, all signs point to the new teacher's guilt, and Kacie might be the only one who believes in her innocence. Worse, Kacie's magics instructor has been assigned to investigate the murder and seems determined to ignore crucial evidence.With no clear sense of where everyone's loyalties lie, Kacela is about to get a crash course in what it really means to be a monster hunter.
