Description

In the corridors of Hamilton College lies a secret. Behind the facade of wealth and power is a world of brutality, where rugby controls lives and boys must learn to be men...even if it kills them. When one student takes a stand, another must decide what really matters. Events of the past avalanche into the present and bring students face to face with the shadows in the mirror.

Reviews

A taunt thriller...Nunn is a teacher, and depicts teens well. But on the strength of this book he could easily write adult thrillers. * The Age *
Nunn has created a well-written, fast-paced and suspenseful story which, one hopes, will ring true with no child. The book will, doubtless, draw comparisons with Robert Cormier's The Chocolate War. * Viewpoint *
This multi-layered story has me hanging on to my seat...an engrossing read. * Magpies *
