About this ebook
THEY WON'T FORGIVE. THEY WON'T FORGET.
'Clever and wonderfully chilling. It held me hostage' - Fiona Barton, Sunday Times-bestselling author of The Widow and The Child
'A brilliant page-turner' Jenny Quintana, author of The Missing Girl
1950 - At the crumbling Idlewild Hall school for unwanted girls, four room-mates begin to bond over dark secrets and whispered fears - until one of them mysteriously disappears . . .
2014 - Journalist Fiona Sheridan can't get over the murder of her sister twenty years ago, near the ruins of Idlewild. And when another body is found during renovations of the school, she begins to uncover horrors that were meant to remain hidden - and a voice that won't be silenced.
For fans of Lisa Jewell and S.K. Tremayne, The Broken Girls is a chilling story of murder, revenge, and secrets that refuse to stay buried . . .
'Dark and atmospheric . . . The Broken Girls shows the gothic claustrophobia of a small town haunted by more than its past' Harriet Tyce, author of Blood Orange
'Downright scary and atmospheric' - Lisa Gardner, author of Right Behind You

This book was brilliant just couldn't put it down at all had me hooked from start to finish and seriously creepy too... I love that it was set in a boarding school back in time never knowing when the ghost of Mary Hand was going to appear... Never knowing what her intentions were... I don't know why I kept reading Idlewild as Iderwood 🙈 The whole way through the book 😂😂 It was great how it switched from the 1950's to 2014... Really loved how it was written getting all the different points of view... This is a must read and defo getting 5 whole stars from me 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🤗👍

Once I started there was no way I was putting this book down. I fell in love with all of the characters so easily and loved the style it was written in. There were many twists and suspenseful moments that I could not have expected that left me muttering "oh my god" under my breath. I absolutely recommend you read this if mystery, horror and a little bit of history is what you're into!
