You want the absolute best for your child, and everyone agrees that's Belmont Academy.
At first you were impressed by Mr Crutcher, with his dedication to his students.
But something isn't right at that school.
It starts with small things . . . A teacher falling sick. Rumours about a former pupil going off the rails. Of course, you never guessed it could end in murder.
And now you have no idea who will be next . . .
