About this Event

Join the Queen of the Big Reveal, Dorothy Koomson, on Wednesday 11th March at 7pm, and we celebrate the publication of her new explosive thriller steeped in betrayal and lies, danger and secrets, The Quiet Girls.

A teacher is dead. A pupil is missing. What are they hiding?

When MJ Hudson, an old work acquaintance, shows up at Dr Kez Lanyon's house in the middle of the night, Kez knows she has no choice but to help.

At the prestigious boarding school that MJ's daughter attends, a teacher has been killed and a pupil is missing. And it seems that the same thing happens every few years. Only this time, the school haven't been able to cover things up and MJ's daughter and her group of nice, quiet friends are right at the heart of the scandal.

Undercover as the new school therapist, Kez quickly realises there are some seriously powerful, well-connected forces at play. And by continuing to investigate the mystery, perhaps even stepping outside the law to do so, Kez risks putting her own family in serious danger.

Because no one wants their secrets aired. And some will go to any length to keep them buried.
