AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Celia and Alice share everything - their secrets, hopes and the increasing horror that a killer is on the loose and abducting schoolgirls just like them. Three bodies have been found, each shrouded in hand-woven fabric.

From within the depths of a police investigation, clues are starting to emerge. But as Alice and Celia discover the truth, danger is closer than anyone knows. Who can you trust at a time like this?

Cry Blue Murder is a haunting and poignant psychological thriller that pushes the boundaries of trust and betrayal, life and death, from two exciting new voices in Australian young adult fiction.' (Publisher's blurb)

    For Mum and Dad, with love and thanks;

    and to Marion Roberts (Co) without whom this novel

    would never have been a novel at all

    xKim

    To Kim Kane - for the fun, intrigue and even the

    sometimes frustrating parts of writing a book by phone

    and email late at night, among twins and teens, a day job

    and a wedding - I couldn't ask for a better co-author

    -Thank you Co xx
