Richelle Mead’s YA paranormal romance series Vampire Academy revolves around students at St. Vladimir’s Academy—where vampires are educated in the ways of magic and half-human teens train to protect them. The first book, Vampire Academy (Razorbill), was adapted into a 2014 movie starring Zoey Deutch, Lucy Fry, Danila Kozlovsky, Olga Kurylenko, Dominic Sherwood, and Gabriel Byrne. The six book series is followed by the spin-off series Bloodlines.

The Strigoi are closing in, and the Academy’s not taking any risks: This year, St. Vlad’s annual holiday ski trip is mandatory.

But the glittering winter landscape and the posh Idaho resort only create the illusion of safety. When three friends run away in an offensive move against the deadly Strigoi, Rose must join forces with Christian to rescue them. But heroism rarely comes without a price…
