About this audiobook
Dunmore Hall kept everything. The polish. The punishment book. The drawer where it lived.
Thirty years after leaving on a scholarship, Cass Morgan returns as headmistress. She has a reform agenda and a private one: her best friend, Sian Pryce, walked out of this school at sixteen and never walked back in.
The bursar was young then. He is still here. He remembers both of them, and he has an offer: the school's good name for Cass's silence.
Cass finds the punishment book. One page has been torn out. The rest of it remembers.
An absolutely unputdownable psychological thriller about institutions that survive, and the women who decide they will not.
