Lindsey Barron Series Volume 2 The Board of Governors

The Lindsey Barron Series is the US answer to Harry Potter. A hundred years ago, wizards and witches finally came out, openly working their spells, accepted by those who have no such skills. Around the country, magic schools were established, where the students go to learn both their traditional subjects and also magic. When they graduate, they have a high school diploma as well as mastery of much magic. Set in our future, now twelve years old, Lindsey discovers that she has been given a full scholarship to Bradbury's School of Magic, somewhere near Telluride, Colorado. Her father, though she did not know it, was a famous wizard, primarily responsible for capturing the incredibly evil wizard known as Dominus Malefic, some fifteen years ago. Now Dominus has escaped and the action begins!

Now in her second year at Bradbury's School of Magic, Lindsey becomes involved in a sinister plot. Someone is conducting a lengthy series of attacks upon the students and the school. From blowing up the stadium stands, to attacking her school bus, someone is trying to harm them. Yet, as the plot unfolds, her friend, Pam, discovers that it is really an attempt by Dominus to have Governor Alister disgraced and forced to relinquish his position as the leader of the school. During the school year, Lindsey becomes more and more a Dispeller, like her father was, one who can cancel an attacking wizard's spells, saving her friends from harm. Pam becomes a Sleuth, one who can solve mysteries others cannot. Amanda becomes a Tracker, one who can see the faint magical energy lines left by spell casting. Yet, it takes the combined skills of everyone, especially Pam, to stop the Mad Bomber and keep Alister from being fired.
