Then Celia, an archivist dedicated to Donahue\u2019s legacy, discovers a feverish partial manuscript of a horror novel written near the end of the author\u2019s life, hidden and preserved in a jar of formaldehyde. With Donahue\u2019s draft and a bit of light forgery assisted by her professional nemesis Joan, Celia might just save the college.

Now she\u2019s studying alchemy at a secretive university in Paris under the tutelage of immortal headmistress Petronelle Flamel. Then Professor Flamel is found murdered. And shortly afterwards, Lark\u2019s old mentor strangely appears in town with ulterior motives.
