Four by Four

£12.99

The children who attend Wybrany College are either wealthy, or somehow special. The cloistered school appears to be a safe haven from the chaos which overwhelms the city outside – but the college has its own agenda, and something wicked lurks just beneath the surface. A majestic piece of Gothic literature, ‘Four by Four’ is a novel in two parts: the first, a portrait of an eerie, ill-omened institution, with a cryptic set of power structures; in the second, a substitute teacher keeps a diary, unearthing the school’s mysteries even as he tries to hide his own secrets.

Description

At Wybrany College, there are two kinds of student: the children of the rich and powerful, and the ‘Specials’ – recipients of a mysterious scholarship. Sealed off from the decaying world outside, the school promises safety, order and, for the Specials, the chance of a different life. But when one of them disappears, the illusion begins to crack. Hidden hierarchies shift. The line between protector and predator blurs.
