At St Oswald's, the official narrative brooks no dissent, and the lie becomes the only binding reality.
Trapped in the glacial archives ahead of the looming Visitation, Rose Hartley and Matt Whitby are forced to censor documents from 1976. But when Theodore Davenport?the headmaster's nephew?brazenly intrudes upon their space, their pragmatic pact unravels into a dangerous, three-way game of secrets and desire. As the brutal truth about the price of her own family's silence comes to light, Rose must decide: become the system's perfect prop, or burn down alongside it?
The second volume of a stifling Dark Academia series, where off-stage mistakes cost the most.
