True Murder
A passionate, unlikely friendship between two troubled adolescent girls unearths dark and troubling secrets ...

Eleven-year-old Ajuba has been abandoned at a Devon boarding school by her Ghanaian father. Haunted by the circumstances of her mother's breakdown and the ghosts of the life she left behind in Ghana, she falls under the spell of new girl Polly Venus and her chaotic, glamorous family. But all is not what it might seem in the Venus household and Ajuba struggles to make sense of things as she watches the family tear each other apart. As the summer draws to a close, three tragedies conflate, with catastrophic results.
