2nd book in the Lacey Flint series and Lacey has been sent off to Cambridge University to pose as a student because of student suicides. She has been asked not to investigate but just to observe. Lacey meets up with Evi Oliver, student counsellor, and they don't know who to trust. They both begin to deteriorate emotionally similar to the students who committed suicide. Lacey begins to feel as if her mysterious past may be catching up to her. I found Bolton's writing to be very good and the plot was fast-paced. The characters were well-developed although Lacey's relationship with Mark Joesbury is a bit odd as they need to learn how to communicate better. I found the ending left some loose ends and hopefully the next book with tie those up. iI would recommend this series to those who like psychological suspense.
