Torn

A school trip to the wilds of Scotland complete with mud, rain and wind was never going to be Alice’s idea of a dream holiday but she couldn’t ever have anticipated the nightmare it turned into.

By the end of the trip, one of Alice’s roommates is dead and the others are locked into a pact of silence and secrecy which eats away at their sanity.

Exploring guilt, regret, remorse, triumphalism, morality and natural justice alongside loyalty, friendship and the emotional intensity of first love is no easy task but this psychological thriller strikes a clever balance to produce a true ‘page-turner’. Gripping, thought-provoking and disturbing.
