A Lesson in Vengeance

by Victoria Lee

A Lesson in Vengeance by Victoria Lee is a dark, atmospheric young-adult thriller set at the elite Dalloway School, where a history of witchcraft and violent death shadows the students. After the death of her girlfriend, Felicity Morrow returns to school and becomes entangled with teenage novelist Ellis Haley, whose research into the mysterious Dalloway Five begins to blur the boundary between history, obsession and danger.
