Day One is the eagerly anticipated novel from author Abigail Dean, whose debut Girl A topped best-seller lists worldwide.

Stonesmere will never be the same again…

A village hall, a primary school play, a beautiful Lake District town. Into this idyllic scene steps a lone gunman whose actions set off a train of events that will have devastating consequences for the close-knit community of Stonesmere.

At the epicentre of the tragedy is Marty, daughter of the teacher who dies trying to protect her pupils. What did she see? How is she involved?

In the weeks and months following the killings, conspiracy theorists start questioning what happened. For outsider Trent Casey, the truther movement offers him a chance to step into the spotlight to expose the ‘sham’ of the killings.

Marty’s and Trent’s lives will become entwined as events spiral out of control. The true story is gradually revealed, but at what cost to those caught up in the maelstrom…

Day One will change you as a person and stay with you for weeks after you read it.

A cleverly nuanced and intricate plot with characters who are not who they seem and who do not make reliable narrators adds to the suspense and intrigue of the book.

It’s haunting, vivid, set in a fictional town within the picturesque Lake District. A heartstopping read in places as the plot unfolds.

An absolute triumph from Abigail Dean, Day One is a book that makes you think and question everything you see, think and feel.
