This is a mystery. It features two timelines by one first person narrator, the first is set 2003 and the second 2017 .

In 2003, Ambrosia Francesca Wellington begins her freshman year at Wesleyan University, a prestigious college filled with privileged students. She quickly befriends Sloane 'Sully' Sullivan who is charismatic and troubled. Eager to fit in and eager to please Sully, Ambrosia finds herself in popular with both her boys and girls. However, things are not what they seem and it's seems that trouble follows her too.

In 2017, Ambrosia is now married to Adrian Turner and working in PR Brighton Dame. She is invited to a class of 2007 reunion by Wesleyan Alumni Committee, which she attends reluctantly. Things start to unscramble when she meets Sully and her past catches up to her present.

I liked how the author gave the first person narrative because it makes you have a greater understanding of that character, Ambrosia, and you tend to sympathise with her. I liked the descriptions and dialogues.
