About this listen

Page Whittaker has always been an outcast. She’s too smart, too quiet, too weird. And then there’s the terrible thing that happened at her old school with Cassidy. When a mysterious scholarship offer to gloomy Scottish boarding school Agathion College – a haven for gifted, troubled, privileged teens – comes in her mail, she jumps at the chance to accept. And as soon as she arrives, Page discovers that she loves Agathion – the old fashioned uniforms, dusty books, steaming cups of black tea, and rigorous intellectual debate (bonus points if it’s conducted in ancient Greek or Latin). At long last, she has found her people.

But everyone is keeping secrets, and Page quickly realizes that at Agathion, nothing is as it seems. The crumbling castle has dark roots – roots that stretch beneath its crooked foundation, deep into the desolate moor. Roots that remember a time when demons terrorized the innocent and gods walked the earth. Agathion claims to teach its students history – but some histories should stay buried.

Critic Reviews

'Dark magic and strange and ancient secrets unfurl in this stunning foray whose skillful plotting is reminiscent of Donna Tart's The Secret History. Painterly descriptions of a rainy gothic atmosphere punctuated by suspense, horror, and humor as experienced by a dynamic and intersectionally diverse found-family cast feel at once as classic as its inspirations, and as an invigorating reinvention of the genre.' (Publishers Weekly)

'Wilkinson lavishly renders the setting through descriptive prose that revels in the school's decaying decadence. In constantly rising action that builds to increasingly fantastical and dramatic reveals, Page uncovers impossible magics, deep-rooted conspiracies and lethal stakes. The world-breaking, bittersweet climax comes at a high cost ... Moody, gripping dark academia steeped in magic.' (Kirkus Reviews, starred review)
