It's been a generation since the Great War among dark creatures, light creatures, and normals devastated the world, and there's still a lot of animosity. Relations among the races are strained at best and the resumption of hostilities is always a very real possibility. None of that concerns Mack however - a plucky neko-angel girl with a good job, a house, and the single-minded determination to get into Mystic Academy, a school set up specifically so members of the different races can get to know each other and establish lasting relationships, hopefully preventing another destructive conflict. The day Mack's acceptance letter comes in the mail is the happiest of her life and she's all about the academy's mission to build bridges and make friends. However, her new friend Taylor is worried, certain that not everyone is sold on the idea and may even be trying to tear down the new school from the inside. Mack and her new friends must decide if Taylor is just being paranoid and resentful of an old girlfriend, or if there really is a dark conspiracy to upset the fragile peace and destroy everything Mystic Academy stands for.

Agnes Strickland (1796–1874) and her sister Elizabeth collaborated on many biographical projects. They were pioneering historical biographers and key figures in the development of women's history. Writing from a female perspective, they included coverage of domestic matters that male historians had previously ignored. Although much of the work is Elizabeth's, she preferred to avoid publicity and her sister Agnes appeared as the sole author. This eight-volume series (originally published between 1850 and 1859) was the sequel to their hugely popular Lives of the Queens of England and allowed Agnes to indulge her passionate interest in Mary, Queen of Scots, to whom Volumes 3–7 are devoted. Volume 6 (1856) covers Mary's imprisonment, first in Scotland by the Scottish Lords and then in England by Queen Elizabeth following her petition for sanctuary. Thoroughly researched and referenced, it describes both the personal and political aspects of Mary's experiences.

The English writer Agnes Strickland (1796–1874) began her career writing poetry and romances before turning to biographical studies. This eight-volume series, written in collaboration with her sister Elizabeth, and first published between 1840 and 1849, was her most ambitious project. It provides biographical accounts of the queens of England from Matilda of Flanders to Queen Anne. Hugely popular in the Victorian period, Lives of the Queens of England and its sequel Lives of the Queens of Scotland remain important landmarks in the development of biography as a genre, and provide interesting perspectives on women's contribution to modern historiography. Volume 8 focuses on Queen Anne (1665–1714), portraying her 'gentle and indulgent' temperament, and describing the political turmoil of her reign.
