Oxford Secrets

The second novel in Rachael Davis-Featherstone’s gripping dark academia duology, examining power, privilege, and the toxic potential of social media. Rumours, Rivalry, Ruin, It’s Freshers’ Week at Oxford University, and Eva is determined not to let the tragic death of her best friend George—or the notoriety she gained solving his murder—define her. Instead, she’s focused on acing her tutes, writing for The Oxford Voice, and maybe even getting to know Malik, her charming new American hallmate. Though try as she might, Eva can’t deny her growing feelings for Xander. Ones that serve as an aching reminder of their shared connection to George every time they start to get close. But when Oxford’s anonymous student forum, Oxford Slays, is targeted by a hack, Eva finds herself at the center of yet another controversy. Eva’s public criticism of Oxford Slays and its negative impact on student wellbeing means all eyes are on her as the true identities behind the Slayer usernames are leaked. It’s up to Eva to discover who engineered the hack and clear her name. As Eva’s investigations reveal deadly secrets, it isn’t long before Oxford blood is spilled again.
