The devil is real-he just prefers tenure.
When Lexi takes a research position at St Dunstan's, she believes it's only temporary: a way to earn money and, quietly, to uncover what happened to her mother, a brilliant scholar who vanished after becoming entangled in the university's occult work.
But St Dunstan's does not give up its secrets easily. Within its marble corridors, stone cloisters conceal ritual circles, rival scholars hoard fragments of forbidden knowledge, and Lexi's own sister keeps a wary distance.
At the center stands Professor August Hale-charismatic, unreadable, and already claimed by something far older than academia. His seminars blur the line between scholarship and summoning, intellect and temptation. To study under him is to risk obsession; to love him may be fatal.
As Lexi delves deeper into the institution's archives and her family's hidden history, she must decide whether she is solving her mother's mystery-or repeating it.
Lush, unsettling, and intoxicating, All That We Raised blends the seductive allure of dark academia with the creeping dread of gothic horror-a novel about inheritance, desire, and the price of brilliance.
