The Midnight Bell was never supposed to ring again.
After uncovering the truth behind their forbidden bond, Rowan Vale and Lucian Blackthorn thought the worst of Blackthorn University's secrets had finally been exposed.
They were wrong.
When the ancient Midnight Bell begins tolling after more than a century of silence, impossible things begin happening across the university. Time slips. Forgotten passages reopen. Old records rewrite themselves. And students begin dying in ways connected to a hidden hour that should not exist.
Every clue points deeper into Blackthorn's buried history-and toward a mystery someone has spent generations trying to erase.
Rowan's rare ability to read magical memory may be the only way to uncover the truth. But each vision draws him closer to something beneath the university that already knows his name.
And Lucian may be the key that opens it.
Their relationship is stronger than ever, but the Covenant binding their bloodlines is changing. As ancient magic tests the difference between destiny and choice, Rowan and Lucian must decide how much they are willing to risk for each other.
Because the murders are only the beginning.
The bell is not simply counting the dead.
It is calling the Covenant back to life.
