Last Chance Academy is a boarding school where students with troubled pasts get a second chance. In A Study in Secrets, the first book, new arrivals discover that the school has mysteries of its own, and trusting the wrong person could mean more than just a bad grade.

The series launched in 2025 with a sequel, The Mastermind’s Trap, following in 2026. Florence brings her experience writing for young readers to a slightly older audience here, with higher stakes and more complex character dynamics than her chapter book work.
