2019 1st Place Winner of the Gertrude Warner Middle Grade Book Awards
After accidentally setting her school gym on fire, Vivian Carmine learns the truth: she’s a phoenix, and her entire life has been one big, magical secret.
When her parents suddenly vanish, Vivian is swept into RISE, a hidden spy academy that trains demi-gods and magical misfits to blend into the human world. Now, instead of homework and high school drama, she’s learning combat skills, managing chaotic fire powers, and trying not to burn everything down-literally.
With the help of her unlikely allies-a snarky fairy and the charming (but slightly mysterious) son of a rebel god-Vivian must track down her parents, master her magic, and stop a war between gods and mortals before it’s too late.
