Told in emails, text messages, and essays, this unputdownable mystery follows a group of students in an art master´s program that goes dangerously awry, from the internationally bestselling "new queen of crime" (Electric Literature) Janice Hallett. Gela Nathaniel, head of Royal Hastings University´s new Multimedia Art course, must find six students from all walks of life across the United Kingdom for her new master´s program before the university cuts her funding. The students are nothing but trouble from day one. There´s Jem, a talented sculptor recently graduated from her university program and eager to make her mark as an artist at any cost. Jonathan, who has little experience aside from running his family´s gallery. Patrick manages an art supply store, but can barely operate his phone, much less design software. Ludya is a single mother and graphic designer more interested in a paycheck than homework. Cameron is a marketing executive in search of a hobby or a career change. And Alyson, already a successful artist, seems to be overqualified. When the examiner, the man hired to grade students´ final workssifts through the students´ final essays, texts, and message boards, he becomes convinced that someone is in danger...or already dead. With her trademark "witty, original" (The New York Times) voice, Janice Hallett weaves a fresh and mind-bending page-turner that will keep you guessing until the final page.
