R3 (History Plays, Book 7)

Murders happen. Life goes on. Just make sure it doesn't happen to you. Richard is determined not only to survive but to come out on top. When a newcomer threatens Globe Prep's delicate social hierarchy, a deadly power play ensues.

Based off of Shakespeare's Richard III, chronologically after 'The Sixth' and 'Henriad' but they don't need to be read in order. Feels like a black-teen comedy, like Heathers.

Trigger/Content Warning: violence throughout, mention of an eating disorder, family trauma, peril, and some distressing imagry. Some teenage sexual content, teenage characters discuss sex, two characters are stated to have had sex, and are shown in bed, partially clothed. Some brief crude teen dialogue.
