Book Description
A gritty, urban YA crime thriller from the acclaimed adult author Catherine Sampson. "Tense, funny and gripping, this is both an eye-opener and a heart-wringer in its depiction of the underclass…. Sarah is less foul-mouthed than she would be in reality, but she is a strong, brave and true heroine who would make Jacqueline Wilson's creations look like Noddy." The Times This is the sort of subject matter that we desperately need our novelists to tackle, although for those who care more about whether a novel is good rather than whether it is necessary, I should add that it is ingenious, gripping and funny." The Telegraph "A fantastic, intense crime thriller with an unreliable narrator. It's about more than murder: it's about failing families, social class, drugs, sex abuse, failing interventions, fear, grief and loneliness. It's an electric read and a fantastic YA debut. Highly recommended." The Bookbag Sarah aka Carnaby has a tough life, but it suddenly gets a whole lot tougher when her mother is found murdered, her sister goes into labour and her new baby nephew is threatened with being taken into care. Sarah doesn't remember finding her mother's body, but she does remember hearing about other murders on the estate where they live. Is there a connection - and can Sarah find out what is going on, without putting herself and her family in even more danger?

Book Description
Aged eleven, having been removed from the ghastly orphanage wedged between slag heaps in the industrial part of Northern France and where girls were better identified by their uniforms numbers than by their names, young Martha arrives in the City of Lights: Paris. In this book, Miss Bertrand takes us on the chaotic journey of her adolescent years fraught with tough challenges, unexpected drama and surprising discoveries. Quite apart from the excitement of being caught up in the May 68 Students Riots due to her schools location, Martha experiences close relationships and friendships which she had never been allowed to enjoy in the past and which leave her totally confused, but deliciously so. The stark contrast between the cold, humourless nuns and the warm, ebullient friends she brings along becomes sharper as we witness her tumultuous life spent between schools and various countries where she is sent during the school holidays. Alas, a free spirit is never welcomed within the confines of a strict convent school. Hence, in the inflexible mind of those in charge, there is only of one way to deal with it: tame it or crush it.
