Lightning Assassin

The Solomon Academy of Magic, Book 2

By: M.C. Waring

Narrated by: Mariah Kerr

With a band of magical assassins hot on her trail, Cass must venture into a deadly den of dragons.

Cass has barely just begun her second semester at the Solomon Academy of Magic when she narrowly survives a harrowing encounter with six assassins who serve a mysterious shadow syndicate.

Possible suspects include Cass’ classmates, a teacher, and a familiar face from her past—Nick, her betrothed. And Nick is more than just her fiancée—he is an exiled prince who hails from a vast desert kingdom of dragons where only the strongest survive.

He also claims to be a spy who’s infiltrated the ranks of the syndicate to uncover what they’re really after. But is he telling the truth? Only one way to find out....

Together with the six accused, Cass must embark on a treacherous journey to Nick’s dragon-infested homeland to find the one enchanted object that can prove their innocence—or their guilt.

Can she trust any of them? Or are they simply waiting for the right opportunity to stick their daggers in her back?

And here she thought her homework was murder....
