Publisher's Synopsis

"A nail-biting page turner written with cinematic sparkle" - Jennifer Niven, bestselling author of All The Bright Places

"Think Serial at Malory Towers" - Katie Lowe, author of The Furies

Welcome to the Magpie Society...


Tragedy has struck Illumen Hall, a prestigious boarding school of tradition and achievement.

The body of student Lola Radcliffe is discovered on the beach, and on her back someone has tattooed an elaborate magpie.

For new student Audrey, it's just another strange and unsettling thing about her new surroundings.

For her roommate Ivy, the death of her friend Lola is something she's desperate to get past - and Audrey's presence isn't helping.

But the two girls are thrown together when a mysterious podcast airs, with a sinister headline:

I KNOW WHO KILLED LOLA. AND ONE OF YOU IS NEXT.

This edition includes the spine-chilling first chapter of THE MAGPIE SOCIETY: TWO FOR JOY.

About the Publisher

Penguin Books

The first ten paperback Penguin books appeared in 1935 costing 6d each (the price of a packet of cigarettes). Since then the Penguin list has developed enormously, but still aims to bring the best writing to the widest possible audience. Penguin Paperbacks now range from Booker Prize-winning contemporary authors, to mass market bestsellers, with successful history, biography and general non-fiction as well.
