Demonglass by Rachel Hawkins is the second book in the Hex Hall series.
The whole reason that Sophie Mercer was sent to hex Hall was because she thought she was a witch. But that was before she discovered a family secret. Her crush Archer Cross is a secret agent working for the Eye. The Eye are the ones who want to kill all Prodigium.
So what is Sophie? It turns out she is in fact a Demon! One of only two demons in the world, the other one is her father. Even worse than this fact is that Sophie has powers that threaten the lives of everyone she loves. Sophie decides that she must travel to London and undergo a procedure called "The Removal". Its a damgerous procedure but would remove all her magic. When Sophie arrives in London she discovers the friends she makes there are also demons. This means someone is raising demons....what plans do they have for these demons?
