Stags 3: Foxes

Link is a fish out of water. Newly arrived from America, he is finding it hard to settle into the venerable and prestigious Osney School. Who knew there could be so many strange traditions to understand? And what kind of school ranks it students by how fast they can run round the school quad - however ancient that quad may be? When Link runs the slowest time in years, he immediately becomes the butt of every school joke. And some students are determined to make his life more miserable than others... When a school summer trip is offered, Link can think of nothing worse than spending voluntary time with his worst tormentors. But when his parents say he can only leave Osney School - forever - if he goes on the trip, Link decides to endure it for the ultimate prize. But this particular trip will require a very special sort of endurance. The saying goes 'No man is an island' - but what if on that island is a group of teenagers, none of whom particularly like each other? When oppressive heat, hunger and thirst start to bite, everyone's true colours will be revealed. Let the battle commence...

The Island

Be careful with them. They're out for blood. Greer MacDonald has just received an invitation to a weekend retreat hosted by the most admired circle of friends at her new boarding school, the Medievals. It's an invitation that everyone in school wants desperately, and rumor has it that the student who most impresses the group will be given the privilege of becoming a Medieval themselves. When Greer arrives at the estate where the retreat is being held, she's immediately taken in by the luxurious trappings--the chauffeured cars, multicourse dinners, and outfits perfectly laid out on her bed each night. But as her time away begins to take shape, the truth becomes impossible to ignore: this weekend that seemed so perfect? It's actually deadly.

É como um mistério de Arthur Conan Doyle ou Agatha Christie para adolescentes modernos." – School Library Journal "Gossip Girl encontra Jogos vorazes." – Bustle "Uma crítica contundente sobre o poder de sedução dos privilégios." – The Guardian "Como Meninas malvadas, só que britânico e mortal. Um livro excelente, do início ao fim." – Hypable O ano letivo começoue Greer ­MacDonald está se esforçando ao máximo para se adaptar ao colégio interno onde ela entrou como bolsista. O problema é que a STAGS, além de ser a escola mais antiga e tradicional da Inglaterra, é repleta de alunos ricos e privilegiados – tudo o que Greer não é. Para sua grande surpresa, um dia Greer recebe um cartão misterioso com apenas três palavras: "caça tiro pesca". Trata-se de um convite para passar o feriado na propriedade de Henry de Warlencourt, o garoto mais bonito e popular do colégio... e líder dos medievais, o grupo de alunos que dita as regras. Greer se junta ao clã de Henry e a outros colegas escolhidos para o evento, mas esse conto de fadas não vai terminar da maneira que ela imagina. À medida que os três esportes se tornam mais sombrios e estranhos, Greer se dá conta de que os predadores estão à espreita... e eles querem sangue. Que a caçada comece!

A caça

WE WERE LIARS meets THE CHOCOLATE WAR in this gripping debut YA novel set against the backdrop of a prestigious private school, a great British estate and the ever-present war of the classes. Seventeen-year-old Greer, a scholarship girl at a prestigious private school, St Aidan the Great School (known as STAGS), soon realizes that the school is full of snobs and spoilt rich brats, many of whom come from aristocratic families who have attended the institute throughout the centuries. She's immediately ignored by her classmates. All the teachers are referred to as Friars (even the female ones), but the real driving force behind the school is a group of prefects known as the Medievals, whose leader, Henry de Warlencourt, Greer finds both strangely intriguing as well as attractive. The Medievals are all good-looking, clever and everyone wants to be among their circle of friends. Greer is therefore surprised when she receives an invitation from Henry to spend a long weekend with him and his friends at his family house in the Lake District, especially when she learns that two other "outsiders" have also been invited: Shafeen and Chanel. As the weekend unfolds, Greer comes to the chilling realization that she and two other "losers" were invited only because they were chosen to become prey in a mad game of manhunt.
