About this listen

Told in emails, text messages, and essays, this innovative thriller follows a group of students in an art master’s program that goes dangerously awry, from the internationally bestselling “new queen of crime” (Electric Literature) Janice Hallett.

University professor Gela Nathaniel must make her new master’s program in multimedia art succeed. If it doesn’t, then Royal Hastings University will cut her funding and she’ll be out of the job she loves. The six students in this inaugural course will be key to that success…but how well has she selected the team?

The students include a talented young sculptor who is determined to graduate with top grades, a former gallery owner with limited artistic skills, a single mother more interested in a paycheck than homework, a people pleaser who struggles with technology, a marketing executive suffering from burnout, and a successful artist who seems rather overqualified for the program.

At the end of the academic year, when the examiner arrives to grade the students’ final project, he finds himself asking what happened. Because if someone in that course isn’t in mortal danger, then they are already dead. But who, and why?

He wants us to listen through the students’ coursework, texts, message boards, and final essays to see if we can find the answers. Only one thing is certain: nothing about this course has been left to chance, and each of these students has their own very different agenda.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Kept Me Up All Night Listening

Characters whirl around each other, revealing a bit here, concealing a bit there. Completely drew me in. Loved the myriad voices.

Not Your Typical Art Course

Very complicated but that’s normal for this author’s books, it’s a wild ride and very enjoyable. The different narrators bring the characters such unique flair. Loved the format.

Disjointed and anticlimactic

Loved the narration: each voice has a personality and it was easy to keep track of who’s writing. Hated the story itself: overly complicated and completely unsatisfying.
