What They're Saying
Critics Review
‘I loved it! Throw a murder into the politics of the school gates and the parents WhatsApp groups and you have a witty, insightful and thoroughly entertaining murder mystery.’ Jo Callaghan, author of In the Blink of an Eye
‘A superb mystery with perfectly drawn characters, plenty of twists and turns, and a suffocating school experience that ultimately, even inevitably leads to murder’ Katy Watson, author of The Three Dahlias
‘Loved this; a fun and twisty mystery peopled by characters you’ll recognise if you’ve ever been part of a parents WhatsApp group!’ Laura Marshall, author of Friend Request
‘Absolutely loved this witty, wicked and cleverly plotted story, with its sharply-drawn characters and skewering of privilege and class. At its heart, though, ONE BAD APPLE is a classic murder mystery - and one that will keep you guessing to the very end’ Caz Frear, author of Sweet Little Lies
