This is a novel about two very different girls and how sometimes, the sum can be more terrifying than each of its parts.
'You may think you know what they do in the dark... But who are 'they'...'Set in the mid-1970s, WHAT THEY DO IN THE DARK combines cosy nostalgia (jumbo lollies, gas fires) with rumbles of apprehension. Something awful's going to happen, but it's not clear what...'A terrific debut, full of energy and colour; as propulsive as a thriller.' - Carrie O'Grady, Guardian.A masterly, disturbing piece of fiction . . . A novel that will leave you haunted long after you've read the final page - Sunday Times - Lucy Scholes
Amanda Coe's screenwriting credits include Shameless; Margot, about Margot Fonteyn and Nureyev; and As If, an acclaimed teen drama series. The Times recently named her one of the top ten women in television.
