This is a darkly humorous and entertaining book. The McMasters "Poison Ivy league" college has a strict admissions process requiring answers to specific questions to screen the intent of each potential student for acceptance into their murderous program (although they do not use the word "murder" but replace it with "deletion"). Everything is done under secretive criteria in a secret location. Students arrive on campus in such unknown means that they have no idea of their location. Once accepted, a student must complete their education and carry out their thesis (deletion) successfully. Failure results in their own "deletion" so it is a kill or be killed motivation for graduating. It is an elite school with a costly tuition. This tale focuses on 3 students (one who is on scholarship by means of an unknown benefactor). The characters, setting and plot were so much fun. I particularly enjoyed the execution (pun intended) of each student's thesis. Clever and fun! I hope there may be more tales to come regarding this school of "higher education".
