The Magpie Society: One for Sorrow
by Zoe Sugg and Amy McCulloch
What they say: The brand new series from Zoe Sugg and Amy McCulloch
Illumen Hall is an elite boarding school. Tragedy strikes when the body of a student is discovered at their exclusive summer party - on her back is an elaborate tattoo of a magpie.
When new girl Audrey arrives the following term, running from her own secrets back home in America, she is thrown into solving the case. Despite her best efforts to avoid any drama, her new roommate Ivy was close to the murdered girl, and the two of them can't help but get pulled in.
The two can't stand each other, but as they are drawn deeper into the mystery of this strange and terrible murder, they will discover that something dangerous is at the heart of their superficially perfect school.
Welcome to The Magpie Society.
One for Sorrow will be told via the alternating first person perspectives of the lead characters Audrey - written by Amy - and Ivy - written by Zoe - with the narrative being jointly plotted by both authors.

The cover design caught my eye straight away - love it!
ReplyDeleteAlso, two authors writing from the point of view of two different characters, and telling the story from those alternating points of view, is a really interesting approach to this - I am intrigued.
Great post, thanks for sharing.
