The doors to Lockworth Academy are opening.

And once you’re inside, you may want to pay attention to the caution lights. 💡🖤

THE LOCKWORTH FILES: CAUTION LIGHTS
by Jess Bicknell
📅 Coming December 2, 2026
📚 Amazon Kindle

They were brought to Lockworth to control their gifts. Instead, they’ll discover the academy is what they should fear, because the greatest monsters aren’t always born. Sometimes, they’re created.

Juniper Thorne has spent most of her life trying to understand the things no one else can see, the voices of the dead, the visions that come before disaster, and the impossible things that happen when her emotions slip beyond her control.

Then Lockworth finds her.

Behind the gothic walls of an academy supposedly built to help gifted students lies something far more dangerous. There are missing students no one wants to discuss, experiments buried beneath decades of secrets, abilities that may be more connected than anyone realizes, and an institution that seems far more interested in what these kids can become than who they already are.

And Juniper?

She may be exactly what Lockworth has been waiting for.

Or exactly what brings the whole damn place down.
