Produktbeschreibung

An international bestseller!

One secret could destroy them all. The brand new dark academia debut for 2024 and a gripping tale of revenge, guilt, privilege, and loyalty, perfect for fans of The Secret History and If We Were Villains

An intensely gripping, thrilling and darkly beautiful debut. I was hooked. Karin Slaughter, #1 New York Times bestselling author

We were always The Four. From our very first day at High Realms.

The four scholarship pupils. Outsiders in a world of power and privilege. And, according to everyone else, we were dangerous.

It would have made our lives a lot easier if Marta had simply pushed our prefect Genevieve out of our bedroom window that day. Certainly, it would have been tragic. She would have died instantly.

But Marta didn't push her then, or if you choose to believe me at any other time. If she had, all of what we went through would not have happened.

I've told this story as clearly as I could as rationally as I've been able, in the circumstances, to achieve. I don't regret what we did. And I would do it all again.
