      'A soul-shattering novel that will leave your emotions raw. This story will haunt me forever. Everyone should read it' Guardian

      'Brilliant, harrowing' Observer
      'A confronting and vital read' Elle

      In a small town where everyone knows everyone, Emma O'Donovan is different. She is the special one - beautiful, popular, powerful. And she works hard to keep it that way.

      Until that night . . .

      Now, she's an embarrassment. Now, she's just a slut. Now, she is nothing.

      And those pictures - those pictures that everyone has seen - mean she can never forget.

      For fans of Caitlin Moran, Marian Keyes and Jodi Picoult.
