Why him? What is a trap?

Galaxy "Alex" Stern is Yale University's weirdest freshman. He was raised by his hippy mother in Los Angeles, he didn't even finish high school, he lived among drug dealer friends and odd jobs, and at the age of twenty he became the sole survivor of a mysterious murder case. On his hospital bed, he is offered a second chance, admission to one of the most prestigious universities in the world. But why him? And who moves the strings?

Alex soon finds himself overseeing the occult activities of Yale's secret societies due to his special ability and on behalf of his mysterious benefactor. However, the use of forbidden magic is more sinister and dangerous than even the most paranoid mind can imagine.
