Opis

The gripping new novel from Sunday Times bestselling author Michele Campbell Because murderers are never who you expect... When twin sisters Rose and Bel Enright enroll at a prestigious New Hampshire boarding school, it seems like the opportunity of a lifetime. But the sisters could not be more different. The school brings out a rivalry between them that few ever knew existed. And the school itself has a dark underbelly of privilege running unchecked and uninhibited; of rituals and traditions that are more sinister than they seem; of wealth and entitlement that can only lead to disaster. For Sarah Donovan, wife of an ambitious teacher who is determined to rise through the ranks, the chance for her husband to teach there seems like the best thing that could happen to their small family. But how well does she know her husband? What lengths will he go to achieve his goals? And when one dark night ends in murder, who is guilty, who knows the truth, and who has been in on it all along?
