The Secret Faculty serves as a portal to another world, from where very few people have managed to return unharmed. Max Limuzzi knows nothing about it and lives an ordinary student life at a prestigious academy. But his calm ends when, with friends, he moves into an old building. There his path crosses with a mysterious newcomer, Isabelle, and a series of problems begins: quarrels with peers, memory lapses, and the sudden disappearance of a student studying Greek who left a note with his name. Max must find out what is happening to him—and what role the Secret Faculty plays in it.
