About this listen
The second novel in Rachael Davis-Featherstone’s gripping dark academia duology, examining power, privilege, and the toxic potential of social media.
Rumours, Rivalry, Ruin,
It’s Freshers’ Week at Oxford University, and Eva is determined not to let the tragic death of her best friend George—or the notoriety she gained solving his murder—define her. Instead, she’s focused on acing her tutes, writing for The Oxford Voice, and maybe even getting to know Malik, her charming new American hallmate. Though try as she might, Eva can’t deny her growing feelings for Xander. Ones that serve as an aching reminder of their shared connection to George every time they start to get close.
But when Oxford’s anonymous student forum, Oxford Slays, is targeted by a hack, Eva finds herself at the center of yet another controversy. Eva’s public criticism of Oxford Slays and its negative impact on student wellbeing means all eyes are on her as the true identities behind the Slayer usernames are leaked.
It’s up to Eva to discover who engineered the hack and clear her name. As Eva’s investigations reveal deadly secrets, it isn’t long before Oxford blood is spilled again.

Praise for Oxford Blood:
“Readers who love Holly Jackson, Karen McManus, and E. Lockhart will find this book difficult to put down.” —School Library Journal (starred review)
“Satisfying and briskly paced action enlivens the novel’s smooth plotting.” —Publishers Weekly
“This is a dark academia mystery as well as social commentary...Readers will find a quality whodunit that also dares to confront the legitimacy of the social hierarchies created when not everyone was afforded human dignity.” —Booklist
“Eva’s character is written with introspection and nuance...Compelling, while a wide cast of characters—each with a distinct voice—draws readers in, whether to cheer for their triumphs or anticipate their downfalls.” —The Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books
