About this audiobook

When she was ten, Alice did something so wicked that the whole world would hate her if they knew. Now she’s sixteen, free at last, with a new identity and a new life. But branded as a killer, forced to live a lie, how long can she keep the past at bay? This much-acclaimed novel is a rare, brave and thought-provoking look at why children commit murder, and what their lives might be like once they grow up.
