We mark the release of Andi Osho’s Most Wanted and Dorothy Koomson’s The Quiet Girls, as they speak to radio presenter and host Fee Mak about what happens when characters take matters into their own hands.
We bring together two writers at the top of their game, Dorothy Koomson, (My Best Friend’s Girl, The Ice Cream Girls and The Woman He Loved Before) and Andi Osho (Asking for a Friend, Tough Crowd and the hit TV series Blue Lights) who take us from the world of a prestigious boarding school to the gentrified streets where artisanal coffee shops and microbreweries mean that affordable housing edges further and further out of reach.
About the novels
Most Wanted
All Naya and Jake want is their own home. An island in the kitchen. A wine cooler, maybe… Nothing fancy really.
With artisanal coffee shops and microbreweries popping up on every corner, prices are skyrocketing. And as Jake and Naya tour property after property, one thing becomes clear: unless they want to share their home with black mould, they need to find a way to make the market crash. And fast.
There’s only one thing for it: they're going to have to take matters into their own hands. But how far are they willing to go?
The Quiet Girls
A teacher is dead. A pupil is missing. What are they hiding?
The explosive new thriller from the Queen of the Big Reveal, steeped in betrayal and lies, danger and secrets
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.
