About this listen

Ophelia Castellan will never be just another girl at Elsinore Academy. Seeing ghosts is not a skill prized in future society wives. Even when she takes her pills, the bean sidhe beckon, reminding her of a promise to her dead mother.

Now, in the wake of the Headmaster's sudden death, the whole academy is in turmoil, and Ophelia can no longer ignore the fae. Especially once she starts seeing the Headmaster's ghosts - two of them - on the school grounds. Her only confidante is Dane, the Headmaster's grieving son. Yet even as she gives more of herself to him, Dane spirals toward a tragic fate dragging Ophelia, and the rest of Elsinore, with him.

You know how this story ends. Yet even in the face of certain death, Ophelia has a choice to make and a promise to keep.

As someone who struggled with Shakespeare at school who then came to read it for pleasure I found this to be an interesting retelling of Hamlet.
It’s a book that doesn’t need a knowledge of Shakespeare’s play to understand and enjoy it but the knowledge of the play brings with it an interesting dynamic as I sought the adaptations
So different to the other books I read by this author

A retelling of Hamlet
