Simon Snow is not a very good Chosen One. As such, he must trounce the magic-sucking Humdrum before it consumes all of the preternatural United Kingdom. But he can hardly operate his wand despite being in his eighth and senior year at Watford and being mentored by the Mage himself, principal of the school and of all things magical. But when Simon happens upon a ghostly message in his dormitory, he and his vampire nemesis and roommate, Baz, his ex-girlfriend ,Agatha, and best friend, Penelope, must conspire. The foursome commits to solving the murder of Baz’s mother and to besting the Humdrum, but what if the two ventures overlap? And what if the evil is less elusive than they thought?
