The Wilde Trials

Mackenzie Reed

A YA dark-academia mystery-thriller about Chloe Gatti, a scholarship student at an elite boarding school who competes in a brutal, high-stakes senior competition for a huge cash prize to help pay for her sister's medical care. She's forced into an uneasy alliance with her brooding ex-boyfriend, whose brother died in the same competition years earlier, as someone starts blackmailing and sabotaging her. As they dig into old secrets and hidden passages on the school's crumbling estate, old feelings resurface alongside the danger.
