The Carved Name

A name hidden beneath Room 7 could change everything Wren thinks she knows about Aldenmere.

During Aldenmere's summer intensive, Wren Cole finds a 1931 record that connects Room 7 to an erased figure in the school's past. The discovery raises new questions about the strange resonance that has followed Wren from the stage into the walls of the conservatory. With Cas Adair, she searches old files, family memory, and Aldenmere's carefully managed history for the truth behind its extraordinary performances. But as the building seems to answer Wren more directly, she faces a choice: keep uncovering what the school made possible, or decide what it should become next.
