'Completely original, quietly chilling. Mean Girls meets We Were
Liars in this compelling, cat-and-mouse thriller featuring enemies
made, secrets kept, and tables turned' LISA GARDNER If Heathers met
The Secret History . . . a darkly gripping coming-of-age story in
which friendships can turn deadly in a school which hides
devastating secrets. Perfect for fans of My Dark Vanessa.
................. It's 1991, and at the St. Ambrose School for
Girls, the exquisite Greta Stanthope 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 Withdrawn,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.
................. Praise for The St. Ambrose School for Girls: 'An
intricate, unflinching portrait of growing up, fitting in, and
speaking out. The St. Ambrose School for Girls is both a taut
thriller and a study on the intensity of teenage relationships and
coming-of-age emotions. With its vivid campus setting, twisty
mystery, and cast of complicated female characters, this story will
burrow into readers' heads and stay there' LAURIE ELIZABETH FLYNN,
author of The Girls Are All So Nice Here 'Mental health,
friendship, loyalty, jealousy, corruption, and love all have a
place in this highly recommended novel that takes readers on a
roller-coaster of events and emotions that the characters
experience' Library Journal (starred review) 'Ward tells the story
of a vulnerable teen struggling to fit in at a tony boarding school
with deep compassion and a lyrical ferocity. A riveting, twisty
read' FIONA DAVIS, New York Times bestselling author of The
Magnolia Palace
