For Your Own Good

Just finished reading this wonderfully dark, twisty and compelling thriller set in a prestigious private school. I raced through it, desperate to know how it would end -B.A. ParisA slick and chilling thriller, leading readers on a dark, sinuous journey through the halls of Belmont Academy-the type of place where you're never sure who to trust, or who to fear.-Megan MirandaDark, sly and delicious...totally original-and totally compelling.-JP DelaneyI'm a huge fan of Samantha Downing.-Sarah PekkanenUSA Today bestselling author Samantha Downing is back with her latest sneaky thriller set at a prestigious private school-complete with interfering parents, overeager students, and one teacher who just wants to teach them all a lesson… Teddy Crutcher has won Teacher of the Year at the esteemed Belmont Academy, home to the best and brightest. He says his wife couldn't be more proud-though no one has seen her in a while. Teddy really can't be bothered with the death of a school parent that's looking more and more like murder or the student digging a little too deep into Teddy's personal life. His main focus is on pushing these kids to their full academic potential. All he wants is for his colleagues-and the endlessly meddlesome parents-to stay out of his way. It's really too bad that sometimes excellence can come at such a high cost.
