Hailing from the village of Gavaldon, Sophia believes her future lies in the good found in fairy tales. Meanwhile, her friend Agatha embraces the darker side. One night, they are taken from under a blood moon to the School for Good and Evil––but are switched during drop off.

Sophia finds herself under the tutelage of Lady Lesso at the School for Evil, while Agatha must navigate life at the School for Good with Professor Dovey. As the duo lean into their new lives, the School Master reveals that “only true love’s kiss” can direct the girls back to their correct school.
