The Academy: Ghost Bird series in a different look at the very beginning. Read Introductions with a whole new perspective--the boys'. As a doctor at a young age, Sean Green’s life in the realm of healing has meant long and grueling hours, which has left little room for much else. He’s exhausted and overwhelmed but with the high school project about to begin, Sean finally feels like he'll have room to breathe, even if it it’s only between classes. Until, not a second into his release from his hospital residency, he's summoned back into the Academy world doing the kinds of things he’d left behind. But he’s up for the challenges and welcomes the return to his team. Hanging Luke off of a two-story building in the middle of the night? No problem. Except something is up with the team. They all seem to be distracted. But by what? Whatever—or whoever—it is has them distracted to the point that things are starting to fall apart. Sean has a few guesses what’s going on, but nothing could have prepared him for the reality: Sang. And in just the first moment of meeting her, he knows everything in his world is about to change. He knows it with his entire heart. And he welcomes it, and her, come what may.
