Die Geschichte verliert sich ständig in irrelevanten Abzweigungen und Andeutungen, die außer Verwirrung nicht viel beitragen. Die Charaktere sind unnahbar und flach, ganz besonders der Erzähler/Protagonist. Spannung baut sich kaum auf, wenn dann nur zeitweise.
Ausverkauft, aber heiß begehrt!

"Powerful...Enthrallling...A ferociously well-paced entertainment." THE NEW YORK TIMES Richard Papen arrived at Hampden College in New England and was quickly seduced by an elite group of five students, all Greek scholars, all worldly, self-assured, and, at first glance, all highly unapproachable. As Richard is drawn into their inner circle, he learns a terrifying secret that binds them to one another...a secret about an incident in the woods in the dead of night where an ancient rite was brought to brutal life...and led to a gruesome death. And that was just the beginning.... "A smart, craftsman-like, viscerally compelling novel." TIME Selected by the Book-of-the-Month Club A NEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOK
