How does murder affect the murderers?
The Secret HistoryI devoured this book. It's beautifully written but covers some very dark subject matter. A small group of highly intelligent young people study ancient Greek under an eccentric lecturer - but they have a secret that must be protected at all costs - even if that cost is murder. The story follows what happens to them in the lead-up to the killing and after it has taken place, then builds up to a dramatic ending.
