A deeply unsettling story of obsessive friendship, dark magic and the ways in which we mythologise our past
When a young man arrives at Cambridge as a first year student, he feels immediately like a fish out of water. Determined to reinvent himself, he cant believe his luck when he falls in with the brilliant, charismatic Bryn Cavendish, a notorious debauched partyer and budding occultist.
But Bryn has a strange control over the loyal group that surround him, and those who cross him end up outcast, haunting the peripheries of campus life like ghosts. As the academic year progresses, we start to wonder is there something darker to Bryn than just undergraduate tricks and dangerous parties
