Regent Academy is known for molding teens into leaders, but its history is far more nefarious. Seventeen-year-old Douglas Jones wants nothing to do with Regent's king-making; he's just trying to survive. But then a student is murdered and, for some reason, by the next day no one remembers him, except for Douglas and the groundskeeper's son, Everett Everley. In his determination to uncover the truth, Douglas awakens a horror hidden within the forest, unearthing secrets that have been buried for centuries. A vengeful creature wants blood as payment for a debt 400 years in the making - or it will swallow all of Winslow in darkness. And for the first time ever, Douglas might have a chance to grasp the one thing he's always felt was missing: power. But if he's not careful, he'll find out that power has a tendency to corrupt absolutely everything.
