      About This Book

      INSTANT USA TODAY BESTSELLER

      "Witty and macabre."—Caroline Kepnes

      "A perfect summer book."—NPR

      USA Today       bestselling author Samantha Downing is back with her latest sneaky thriller set at a prestigious private school—complete with interfering parents, overeager students, and one teacher who just wants to teach them all a lesson…

      Teddy Crutcher has won Teacher of the Year at the prestigious Belmont Academy, home to the best and brightest.
       
      He says his wife couldn't be more proud—though no one has seen her in a while.
       
      Teddy really can't be bothered with a few mysterious deaths on campus that're looking more and more like murder or with the student digging a little too deep into Teddy's personal life. His main focus is pushing these kids to their full academic potential.  
       
      All he wants is for his colleagues—and the endlessly meddlesome parents—to stay out of his way. If not, well, they'll get what they deserve.
       
      It's really too bad that sometimes excellence can come at such a high cost.
