Synopsis: From Amazon
April Dunne is not impressed. She's had to move from Edinburgh to
Highgate, London, with her parents. She's left her friends - and her
entire life - behind. She has to start at a new school and, worst of
all, now she's stuck in a creepy old dump of a house which doesn't even
have proper mobile phone reception. Ravenwood, her new school, is a
prestigious academy for gifted (financially or academically) students -
and the only place her parents could find her a place, in the middle of
term, in the middle of London, on incredibly short notice. So she's
stuck with the super-rich, and the super-smart . . . and trying to fit
in when the rest of the students seem to be more glamorous, smarter, or
more talented than she is, is more than tough. It's intimidating and
isolating, even when she finds a friend in the conspiracy-theorist Caro
Jackson - and perhaps finds something more than friendship in the
gorgeous, mysterious Gabriel Swift. But there's more going on at
Ravenwood than meets the eye. Practical jokes on new students are
normal, but when Gabriel saves her from . . . something . . . in
Highgate Cemetery, and then she discovers that a murder took place just
yards away from where she had been standing, April has to wonder if
something more sinister is going on. . . . and whether or not she's
going to live through it . . . To find out more about the Ravenwood

Synopsis: From Amazon
Highgate When April's family moved to the sleepy North London village
of Highgate, everyone told her it was the start of an amazing new life.
They didn't know the half of it. Weeks later, her father was the latest
in a series of brutal killings, someone has tried to kill her, and now
her boyfriend, Gabriel, is dying too . . . Murder April couldn't
save her father, but there's just a chance she can save Gabriel. There's
an ancient recipe, hidden in a forbidden book, which holds the cure.
All April has to do is find it. Somehow. Vampires But she has to
keep a low profile. In a school full of vampires, where one of their own
has been killed, they're beginning to suspect they have a Fury in their
midst. April's blood might be deadly to vampires, but even that won't
save her if they figure out who she is. Time is short, the stakes
are high, and surviving school has never been so tough . .
