Samenvatting:

'Discovering the secret world of American boarding schools was endlessly entertaining. I absolutely loved this book and can't wait to read the sequel!' JILL MANSELL

Secrets, rumours, and dangerous liaisons - at an elite New England boarding school, they come with the territory.

Amidst the happy chaos of move-in day at Tiffin Academy, shocking news arrives: America Today just ranked Tiffin the number two boarding school in the country. It's a seventeen-spot jump - was there a typo? The dorms are dingy, the sports teams always come last and Tiffin students are known for being more social than academic. But the campus is exquisite, class sizes are small, and the dining hall is run by a New York chef. And they do have lots of fun . . .

As the rarefied air of Tiffin is suffused with self-congratulation, scandalous bulletins begin to appear on phones across campus, thanks to a new app called Zip Zap. And it seems everyone has something to hide . . .

As the year unfolds, bonds are forged and broken, secrets are shared and exposed, and the lives of Tiffin's students and staff are changed forever.

Elin Hilderbrand, bestselling author of The Perfect Couple, teams up with her daughter, Shelby Cunningham, to deliver a fresh and buzzy look behind ivy-covered walls.
