Summary: "A descendant of Medusa, Ava is sent to the Accademia del Forte in Venice after an altercation with a classmate, where she must learn to control her emotions, especially when she unearths a terrible secret that could change the world forever"--Summary: "Ava Baldwin hadn't meant to lose her temper. But Owen King deserved it. Ava has always tried to keep her anger in check, just like her mom taught her. But when arrogant, know-it-all classmate Owen tries to speak over her again, Ava explodes--and Owen freezes, becoming totally unresponsive. He eventually recovers, but shortly afterward, Ava's parents send her to the Accademia del Forte, a boarding school in Venice that, she learns, is especially for children who are descended from mythological monsters. There, Ava and her brother Jax discover they are part Gorgon, and have been sent to the school to learn to control their emotions--and their powers--in hopes they will become functioning, well-adjusted members of society, unlike their loathed ancestor Medusa"-- Provided by publisher.
