After moving to New York for her senior year of high school, Eva Nelson falls for a mysterious boy who leads her to discover a family she never knew she had.

When she flies to London to meet them, she’s unwittingly inducted into an elite society of magic that puts her life in grave danger.

Hopelessly romantic and addictively suspenseful, In Scientia is a contemporary fantasy where magic is just as real as love.

Eva Nelson wanted answers. What she found was a world built on lies.

In the follow-up to In Scientia, Eva must reckon with the cost of the truth as secrets surface from every corner of her life. Her family. The boy she loves. Even the story of her parents' deaths seems to change depending on who is telling it.

The more Eva learns, the more dangerous she becomes to the ancient order that has spent centuries deciding who gets knowledge, who gets protected, and who gets erased. But Eva has survived too much to surrender quietly. Armed with dangerous new magic, impossible wealth, and a best friend who would follow her into hell, she is beginning to understand that the power they fear may be the only thing that can set her free.

From the glittering danger of Manhattan to the guarded estates of London and the volcanic winds of the Canary Islands, In Secreta is a seductive, high-stakes sequel about forbidden love, ancient secrets, inherited betrayal, and a girl discovering that existence is not something she needs permission for.
