The Magpie Society: One for Sorrow

Summary

"A nail-biting page turner written with cinematic sparkle" - Jennifer Niven, bestselling author of All The Bright Places

"Think Serial at Malory Towers" - Katie Lowe, author of The Furies

Welcome to the Magpie Society...


Tragedy has struck Illumen Hall, a prestigious boarding school of tradition and achievement.

The body of student Lola Radcliffe is discovered on the beach, and on her back someone has tattooed an elaborate magpie.

For new student Audrey, it's just another strange and unsettling thing about her new surroundings.

For her roommate Ivy, the death of her friend Lola is something she's desperate to get past - and Audrey's presence isn't helping.

But the two girls are thrown together when a mysterious podcast airs, with a sinister headline:

I KNOW WHO KILLED LOLA. AND ONE OF YOU IS NEXT.

This edition includes the spine-chilling first chapter of THE MAGPIE SOCIETY: TWO FOR JOY.
