Regent Academy has a long and storied history in Winslow, Vermont, as does the forest that surrounds it. The school is known for molding teens into leaders, but its history is far more nefarious. <\/p>\n

Seventeen-year-old Douglas Jones wants nothing to do with Regent's king-making; he\u2019s just trying to survive. But then a student is murdered and, for some reason, by the next day no one remembers him having ever existed, except for Douglas and the groundskeeper's son, Everett Everley. In his determination to uncover the truth, Douglas awakens a horror hidden within the forest, unearthing secrets that have been buried for centuries. A vengeful creature wants blood as payment for a debt more than 300 years in the making\u2014or it will swallow all of Winslow in darkness.<\/p>\n

And for the first time in his life, Douglas might have a chance to grasp the one thing he\u2019s always felt was missing: power. But if he\u2019s not careful, he will find out that power has a tendency to corrupt absolutely everything.<\/p>\n
