The Temple House Vanishing is released on the 6th February 2020, but we're so excited because we've had the opportunity to read and review it early! A dark mystery that gets tenser as the page numbers increase, this is a glorious debut!
Here is the synopsis:
Twenty-five years ago, a sixteen-year-old schoolgirl and her charismatic teacher disappeared without trace...
In an elite Catholic girls' boarding-school the pupils live under the repressive, watchful gaze of the nuns. Seeking to break from the cloistered atmosphere two of the students - Louisa and Victoria - quickly become infatuated with their young, bohemian art teacher, and act out passionately as a result. That is, until he and Louisa suddenly disappear.
Years later, a journalist uncovers the troubled past of the school and determines to resolve the mystery of the missing pair. The search for the truth will uncover a tragic, mercurial tale of suppressed desire and long-buried secrets. It will shatter lives and lay a lost soul to rest.
The Temple House Vanishing is a stunning, intensely atmospheric novel of unrequited longing, dark obsession and uneasy consequences.
"Burning with an intense, provocative fire, this is a debut that doesn’t flinch from the troubled world it creates." Liz Robinson, Editorial Expert
