Ophelia Winters wants revenge.

Isolated in the Scottish Highlands, Sorrowsong University usually only welcomes students from the most powerful and corrupt families. Ophelia doesn't belong, but a rare scholarship grants her the perfect opportunity to investigate her parents' ""accidental"" death near the castle grounds. Her plan? Keep her head down to find out what truly happened and punish those responsible. The last thing she needs is to wind up in a mafia war or step on the toes of actual royalty.

Things get off to a rocky start when she runs afoul of the mysterious Alex Corbeau-Green-son of her prime suspect. As far as she's concerned, he is just a younger version of his billionaire father. A monster hiding beneath a beautiful façade.

Loneliness has been Ophelia's only dependable companion for years. But when an unknown tormentor begins to stalk her, she realizes she may not be able to survive Sorrowsong on her own. It's Alex who becomes her unexpected ally-and alibi for murder. And as she begins to fall for the soft heart that hides beneath his hard exterior, her hunger for revenge wavers for the first time.

Can she really bring herself to destroy everything he's ever known?

Mystery. Murder. Revenge. Welcome to Sorrowsong University.
