    "description": "<p>Find a gateway to the underworld. Steal a soul out of hell. A simple plan, except people who make this particular journey rarely come back. But Galaxy &ldquo;Alex&rdquo; Stern is determined to break Darlington out of purgatory\u2015even if it costs her a future at Lethe and at Yale. Forbidden from attempting a rescue, Alex and Dawes can&rsquo;t call on the Ninth House for help, so they assemble a team of dubious allies to save the gentleman of Lethe. Together, they will have to navigate a maze of arcane texts and bizarre artifacts to uncover the societies&rsquo; most closely guarded secrets, and break every rule doing it. But when faculty members begin to die off, Alex knows these aren&rsquo;t just accidents. Something deadly is at work in New Haven, and if she is going to survive, she&rsquo;ll have to reckon with the monsters of her past and a darkness built into the university&rsquo;s very walls. Thick with history and packed with Bardugo&rsquo;s signature twists, Hell Bent brings to life an intricate world full of magic, violence, and all too real monsters.</p>",
