Lessons In Death

Lessons in Death by Sophie McKenzie launches a smart, fast-moving YA murder mystery set behind the polished doors of Mayfield Academy. It’s the last day of April, the summer term is settling in, and Georgia expects the usual school dramas—until she finds the drama teacher dead in the library… and when she returns with help, the body is gone.

Georgia knows what she saw, but most people are quick to doubt her. Only her best mate Billy is firmly on her side. Along with new girl Wren, they start tugging at loose threads across campus, chasing clues through corridors, classrooms and shifting alliances. The more they uncover, the clearer it becomes someone is watching—and they’ll do whatever it takes to shut this investigation down.

Perfect for readers who love boarding school intrigue, teen friendships under pressure, and twisty school-set thrillers.

Step into Mayfield Academy and see how long you can keep your nerve.
