Edward Fosca is a murderer. Of this Mariana is certain. But Fosca is untouchable. A handsome and charismatic Greek Tragedy professor at Cambridge University, Fosca is adored by staff and students alike—particularly by the members of a secret society of female students known as The Maidens. Mariana Andros is a brilliant but troubled group therapist who becomes fixated on The Maidens when one member, a friend of Mariana’s niece Zoe, is found murdered in Cambridge. 

To be fully honest this book don’t live up to the hype. 

The mystery part in this book was super engaging and interesting and I loved to follow the investigation which the main character was doing. But the final where the whole mystery is explained was really not what I’ve expected and it had really disappointed me. 

This book for me didn’t feel quite as a psychological thriller but more like a shitty ended thriller. But that just my opinion so take it for what you want. 

The plot here was the very good, but the ending was really disappointing and it had ruined the entire book for me. And it left us in a huge cliff-hanger which really made me pissed of even more.

The characters here were okay for the most part. There were some characters which were painted as bad characters were they shouldn’t be and there were some good characters which really didn’t deserve it.

The main character was somehow likeable but she really is bad at catching little hints which really made me scream in anger at times and made me want to bang my head against the wall when the big finally came around. 

The writing style here is somehow okay but it really felt very weak at times especially when you compare it with the plot. 

I Give This Book 2 / 5
