I think this is one of the best stories Chris has written. Emily, a teenager with a mundane life on earth, an introvert, is kidnapped and transported to another universe where she is to be executed to provide power to a necromancer. Rescued, she is sent to Whitehall for schooling as a sorceress. It's not Hogwarts, and she confuses Harry Potter morals, story line and concepts with the reality of Whitehall, often creating problems when she opens her mouth without thinking first. The necromancer is not finished with her though, and that is what this book is about. Once I got past the first few chapters I could not put it down. I hope there is a sequel!
