Started out well, very sinister Catholic girls school, eccentric teacher who is a tad too close to the girls and the strong implications of illicit affairs with some of his pupils.
But then I thought it just lost pace and was quite drawn out to the resolution.
Mr. Lavelle is obviously toying with the girls affections and lapping up the attention especially off the very insecure and obsessive Victoria but she can’t see this and only her friend Louisa can who is also attracted to Victoria.
It all comes to a head and all gets a little complicated towards the end.
Good premise but think it lacked a little in its execution.
A fair read but could have been better as the tension took a time to build up.
