Ultan Academy by K.S. Elliott

Pre-orders close 22nd September 

In store date 6th October 

Zia Elora has dreamed her entire life to study at the famous Ultan Academy, the place to attend if you want to be a powerful Card wielder. When she finds out her brother is going but she isn't, she devises a plan. It's simple: jump into the back of the carriage.
If only she knew what would be in store for her once she passed through the gates.
Fitting in is harder than it seems. Between the annoying Neylirian who won't leave her alone and her quiet roommate, Zia realizes life at Ultan Academy isn't the fantasy she created.
Especially when she wakes up to someone screaming.
Students are mysteriously dying, and no one can seem to unearth the one responsible. So Zia decides to find them herself. When people she loves are in danger, she'll stop at nothing to find the killer, even when she begins seeing things that aren't really there.
Between balancing class work and an entirely new life, will she find who's to blame for all the deaths, or will she die trying?
