The Scholars

Dark academia meets murder mystery in this biting new novel from MacKenzie Common. Sparking questions about the dangers of social media, modern violence and social responsibility, THE SCHOLARS is perfect for fans of Janice Hallett and M.L Rio.

You'd kill to be one of them.
They'd kill to get out .

The Shepherd Scholarship is the most coveted honour Oxford University has to offer, reserved for the extraordinary and exceptional. With all eyes on them, the five new scholars, Mabel, Azelle, Finn, Hadley and Hugo become unlikely allies as they try to prove themselves worthy.

Until one of them turns up dead.

When a secret book proposal is leaked in the aftermath of the tragedy, it threatens the true identities of the four remaining scholars. Soon everything they have worked so hard to conceal starts to unravel. Because there is a murderer amongst them, and they would kill to keep their secret safe.
