New York Times bestselling author Jacqueline Carey makes her psychological thriller debut with The Avalon Society, a twisted suspense story about memory, identity, and truth.

Does magic exist?

The Avalon Society thrived on the belief. From politicians to pop stars to people down the street, all flooded their doors to get in on the secret... for a price.

But when the founding families' political ambitions reached too high, Avalon burned. Milla was there the night it happened; she and her sister Lia, childhood prodigies, at the end of the world as they knew it. But Milla's memories aren't entirely her own-their own. And her sister vanished into a lifestyle that considers the belief a sin.

Now the past has come calling, stirring up truths better left buried, conspiracies that could ruin them all. What was the true cause of Avalon's downfall? What were the founders hiding?

And was the magic ever real?

It's time Milla found out... and the stakes are higher than she knows.
