*An Instant New York Times Bestseller*

We Were Liars meets The Raven Boys in this warped reimagining of The Picture of Dorian Gray about dark revenge, twisted desire, and the sinister secrets lurking behind the walls of an elite boarding school.

"A darkly delicious spiral where each page makes you crave more." ―CG Drews, author of Don't Let The Forest In

"A stunningly lush, utterly compelling, darkly beautiful debut!" ―Ginny Myers Sain, New York Times bestselling author of Dark and Shallow Lies

Seventeen-year-old Marin James has always lived in the shadow of the exclusive Huntsworth Academy. And when her cousin is found dead on school property, Marin knows exactly who’s to blame: Adrian Hargraves and Henry Wu, the enigmatic yet dangerously alluring leaders of the school’s social elite.

Seeking justice, Marin poses as a student and infiltrates Huntsworth, only to find herself drawn to her new life―and to the two broken boys she once vowed to destroy.

When Marin uncovers an otherworldly secret the boys are hiding within Huntsworth’s ivied gates, the lines between right and wrong, love and hate, and nightmare and reality begin to crumble―and nothing is as it seems.

Welcome to Huntsworth Academy.

And don't miss Jenni Howell's next unputdownable standalone novel, Teach Me to Prey.

A reluctant teenage killer, the alluring demon she’s bound to, and the headstrong boy she’s sworn to kill are tangled in a web of dangerous desire and sinister secrets in this dark psychological thriller for fans of Don't Let the Forest In and When Devils Sing.
