The Sapphire Chalice

About

 What if the world didn't lose magic...it just hid it?

Ivy Carter never expected magic to find her, least of all in the middle of a Highland snowstorm, when a well-dressed stranger arrives with a secret her mother has kept for thirteen years.

Ivy carries Sorcerer’s Blood. And Crestwood Academy has been waiting.

Days after her thirteenth birthday, Ivy is taken to Crestwood, a prestigious school hidden on the outskirts of London. But beyond its polished halls, something is wrong. Deep in the surrounding forest, ancient ruins, the remnants of a past the academy tried to erase, have begun whispering to her in a voice no one else can hear.

As she gets closer to uncovering the secret Crestwood is desperate to keep buried, Ivy realises she isn’t the only one drawn to the ruins. Someone else is searching for them, determined to release whatever was sealed inside.

Now, Ivy must decide whether to help bury the past once more or risk unleashing the very thing that could destroy Crestwood.

Because some things were never meant to be found. And once awakened, they refuse to stay buried.

Step into the enchanted halls of Crestwood Academy in this spellbinding adventure where Ivy Carter and her new-found friends uncover a magical legacy, face the perilous Gauntlet, and unravel secrets that some would rather the world forgot. The Sapphire Chalice is perfect for fans of adventure, mystery, and unforgettable friendships whether they grew up with magic or are discovering it for the first time.
