"Lennon Carter&rsquo\;s life is falling apart .
\nThen she gets a mysterious phone call inviting her to take the e ntrance exam for Drayton College\, a school of magic hidden in a secret po cket of Savannah. Lennon has been chosen because&mdash\;like everyone else at the school&mdash\;she has the innate gift of persuasion\, the ability to wield her will like a weapon\, using it to control others and\, in rare cases\, matter itself.
\nAfter passing the test\, Lennon begins to learn how to master her devastating and unsettling power. But despite pers uasion&rsquo\;s heavy toll on her body and mind\, she is wholly captivated by her studies\, by Drayton&rsquo\;s lush\, moss-draped campus\, and by h er brilliant classmates. But even more captivating is her charismatic advi ser\, Dante\, who both intimidates and enthralls her.
\nAs Lennon co ntinues in her studies her control grows\, and she starts to uncover more about the secret world she has entered into\, including the disquieting hi story of Drayton College\, and the way her mentor&rsquo\;s tragic and viol ent past intertwines with it. She is increasingly disturbed by what she le arns. For it seems that the ultimate test is to embrace absolute power wit hout succumbing to corruption . . . and it's a test she's terrified she is going to fail."
