Bianca could not imagine a worse start to the school year. Having accepted positions at a prestigious boarding school, her parents have moved her away from her home town and all her friends and enrolled her in the school where they teach: Evernight Academy. From the start, Bianca is keenly aware of her status as an outsider and the eeriness of the academy. The only upside has been meeting another outsider named Lucas, to whom she feels magnetically drawn. Evernight's secrets, however, soon threaten the lives of both Bianca and Lucas. They find themselves unwillingly caught up in a ferocious battle between ancient enemies: vampires and vampire hunters.

In this gripping story of star-crossed love and dangerous alliances, Claudia Gray spins a stunning modern-gothic tale.
