This starts off with a young woman named Kyra being hit by a car in an apparent attempt to kill her. Some strange things happen right after that and then, to make things even more difficult, she finds out her grandmother and her mother have been withholding information from her.
Kyra turns out to be part fae and ends up at Spellwood Academy, a place for mortal/other mixed students to stay protected from those who might want to harm them or use them. As Kyra finds out, though, this doesn't protect them from each other. Nor, in Kyra's case, will it protect her from yet another person trying to murder her.
To top that off Kyra finds out more things have been withheld from her about her own past, complicating things for her even more.
The book had interesting characters but the academy itself basically makes a mockery of the idea of an educational establishment (not criticizing the writing, though. It made the uselessness of the place even more real.)
