Maybe it's not where Ellie wants to be, but if you have to start at a new school, Avalon High is typical enough: There's Lance, the jock. Jennifer, the cheerleader. And Will, senior class president, quarterback, and all-around good guy.
But not everyone at Avalon High is who they appear to be... not even, as Ellie is about to discover, herself. As a bizarre drama begins to unflod, Ellie has to wonder, what part does she play in all this? Do the coincidences she's piecing together really mean-as in King Arthur's court-that tragedy is fast approaching for her new friends?
Ellie doesn't know if she can do anything to stop the coming trouble. But somehow, she knows she has to try.
