If this were a horror movie, Yuiza would know exactly what to do. They live and breathe horror, making their own films with their friends in their spare time. But now Yuiza’s being sent away from their friends–away from their beloved protective family–away from their home in the Bronx. Their destination: Our Lady of Perpetual Mercy, an elite boarding school that prepares students for the Ivy Leagues.
From the moment Yuiza sets foot on the campus, they sense that something’s off. It’s not just their fellow students, who treat them like a curiosity and a potential threat. It’s not just the bizarre and contradictory rules, or the packed schedule that’s impossible to juggle, or the disturbing dreams Yuiza starts having.
It’s the school’s very roots, winding around Yuiza, determined to pull them under. To survive this place, Yuiza will need to draw on all their knowledge of horror stories–and rewrite the plot of their own.
