Alex Stern is a student at Yale and part of an organization called Lethe, aka the Ninth House. It oversees the eight ancient secret societies on campus that practice magic. Alex was chosen because she can see ghosts, Grays. No one knows it, but she can also interact with the ghosts in a way no one else can. Her mentor is a guy called Darlington, and he has recently disappeared. We enter the story when a local girl, Tara, has been murdered.

Alex must investigate the case on her own, without Darlington's help.

Another superb fantasy from the legendary Leigh Bardugo (the author of Shadow and Bone).
