Steeped in mystery and suspense, Ninth House is a dark and twisted story that is not for the faint-hearted. It talks of occult secret societies in an elite University, of unspeakable horrors committed by its rich and privileged members, and of a girl who can see ghosts and is just trying to make sense of it all. With its dual timeline, Dark academia aesthetics and flawed characters, Ninth House is reminiscent of books like The Secret History and If We Were Villains, with the addition of the supernatural, the occult, and portals to other dimensions.
'Impossible to put down' - Stephen King
Galaxy 'Alex' Stern is the most unlikely member of Yale's freshman class. A dropout and the sole survivor of a horrific, unsolved crime, Alex was hoping for a fresh start. But a free ride to one of the world's most prestigious universities was bound to come with a catch.
Alex has been tasked with monitoring the mysterious activities of Yale's secret societies - well-known haunts of the rich and powerful. Now there's a dead girl on campus and Alex seems to be the only person who won't accept the neat answer the police and campus administration have come up with for her murder.
Because Alex knows the secret societies are far more sinister and extraordinary than anyone ever imagined. They tamper with forbidden magic. They raise the dead. And sometimes they prey on the living . . .
