NINTH HOUSE meets THE ATLAS SIX in the haunting debut everyone on TikTok is
talking about . . .

Delaney Meyers-Petrov is tired of being seen as fragile just because she's
Deaf. So when she's accepted into a prestigious program at Godbole University
that trains students to slip between parallel worlds, she's excited for the
chance to prove herself. But her semester gets off to a rocky start as she
faces professors who won't accommodate her disability, and a pretentious
upperclassman, Colton Price, who seems determined to despise her.

Colton Price died when he was nine years old. Quite impossibly, he woke at the
feet of a green-eyed little girl. When she told him to live, he obeyed. Now,
twelve years later, Delaney has stumbled back into his orbit, but Colton's
been ordered to keep far away from the new girl... and the voices she hears
calling to her from the shadows.

Delaney wants to keep her distance from Colton - she seems to be the only
person on campus who finds him more arrogant than charming - yet after a
Godbole student turns up dead, she and Colton are forced to form a tenuous
alliance, plummeting down a rabbit-hole of deeply buried university secrets.
But Delaney and Colton discover the cost of opening the doors between worlds
when they find themselves up against something old and nameless, an enemy they
need to destroy before it tears them - and their forbidden partnership -
apart.
