'Intoxicating' ALICE SLATER

'Absorbing' ELLY GRIFFITHS

'Vibrant, dark' JANICE HALLETT

Shannon Bell is a nobody. But she can act.

So when she's accepted into one of London's most elite drama schools, it feels like her chance at a life that's far from her drab home town.

There, Shannon meets Victoria: dazzling, wealthy, beautiful Victoria. The two become inseparable, Victoria the shining centre of Shannon's new world.

And suddenly, Shannon is no longer a nobody. Instead, she's on the inside, part of Victoria's exclusive set of promising young somethings. They spend their days competing for roles, and their nights vying for each other's affections.

But when Victoria's privilege begins to single her out from her peers, Shannon finds their friendshipโ€”and her jealousyโ€”spinning out of control, with fatal consequences.

Ripley meets Saltburn in a dark, simmering story of ambition, obsession and desire' JP DELANEY
