The novel follows a compelling cast of characters through a drama-filled year at a New England boarding school. \nPre-signed books remain available for purchase by clicking the button below. \nSusan Patterson and her bestselling author husband\, James Patterson\, will appear at Glazer Hall on April 15 to celebrate their latest collaboration\, a new novel\, The Mother-Daughter Book Club. \nThe
