A gripping and cinematic debut novel that follows an ambitious university student who befriends a group of privileged classmates, and discovers that everything—wealth, power, and belonging—comes at a price.
YOU’D KILL TO BE ONE OF THEM.
Eve leaves behind a bleak childhood for the icy but beautiful environs of Newcastle University. Determined that her life will not be ordinary, she is delighted when a chance encounter introduces her to a glamorous and intoxicating clique of some of England’s most privileged.
The group are bonded by a passion for the poetry of the Late Romantics and a desire to pursue a Byronic lifestyle, pushing life to its extremes. For Eve, it is a world of wonder, one filled with poetry, decadent parties, and unimaginable wealth. But when the Byronic ideals of free love and hedonism splinter beneath the weight of obsession, sex, and lies, the group becomes bound instead by something darker; a single night that will change them all forever.
Years later, they reunite in the days leading up to a glittering wedding. Their lives still appear golden and enviable, but cracks have begun to show. Someone is determined that there will be a reckoning for the past, and secrets emerge, lethal and uncontainable.
