"An intriging novel of forking paths following a crime committed out of misplaced fear"
When a frightened Jo reacts physically to a man she’s convinced is following her home after a night out, her life quickly spirals out of control. Standing over his prone body at the foot of the stairs, she hesitates between two choices: flee the scene or call for help. From that moment, the novel’s branching narrative - Conceal vs Reveal - explores the radically different consequences of each decision.
Could lashing out in a moment of terror have ruined Jo’s life regardless of what she does next?
Reaveal: Will her obsessively rule-following boyfriend stand by her? Will her best friend or her parents?
Conceal: Does a work colleague suspect what she’s done?
And is there anything Jo can do to avoid the seemingly inevitable?
Anything You Do Say examines how women are so often trapped between appearing complicit in men’s unwanted advances and being dismissed as hysterical for overreacting with no choice ever being quite the right one.
