  To an outsider, the hedonistic lifestyle of university students can seem an enviable one. But right now Danny Thorn - enrolled at Billings College Cambridge - can see little to be jealous of. Danny's got woman troubles - his ex, Julie, won't leave him alone and the beguiling Stella doesn't seem to be interested in him. But as the term progresses, getting a date for the May Ball will be the least of his worries. A rapist, who's been preying on female students for months, is still at large. And a potentially deadly case of the green-eyed monster is about to rear its ugly head. As events take increasingly bizarre and shocking turns, Danny's mother, Rosa, arrives in Cambridge. There to film a TV series and see her son, instead she finds herself desperately trying to restore some sort of order. But she could never be prepared for just how terrifying things are about to get...
