It's 1991, and at the St. Ambrose School for Girls, the exquisite Greta Stanhope reigns supreme. She's rich, beautiful - and malicious.

Sarah Taylor is the new girl at St. Ambrose. Exiled to the elite New England boarding school, Sarah finds the girls here are glossy and sharp-tongued. Withdrawn, prickly and fragile, she doesn't fit in.

Greta won't let Sarah forget that she'll never be one of them. But Sarah is determined not to give Greta the satisfaction of breaking her.

Yet the line between teenage rivalry and something much darker is thin. When someone ends up dead, Sarah finds herself unravelling.

Just how far will she go to protect her own secrets? And is she prepared for what the other girls will do to do the same?

Deliciously dark and razor-sharp, The St. Ambrose School for Girls is a compulsive novel that will stay with you long after you turn the last page.
