Excellent- More about Penance: From the author of BOY PARTS
In the small seaside town of Crow-on-Sea, a murder of a sixteen-year-old girl named Joan Wilson rocked the community. Journalist Alec Z. Carelli has constructed the definitive account of the crime based on interviews with witnesses and family members, and even correspondence with the killers themselves. The book is a riveting snapshot of lives scarred by tragedy and a town left in turmoil. The only question is how much of Carelli's story is true.

Do you know what happened already?
Did you know her?
Did you see it on the internet?
Did you listen to a podcast?
Did the hosts make jokes?
Did you see the pictures of the body?
Did you look for them?
It's been nearly a decade since the horrifying murder of sixteen-year-old Joan Wilson rocked the small seaside town of Crow-on-Sea. Based on hours of interviews with witnesses and family members, and even correspondence with the killers themselves, journalist Alec Z. Carelli has constructed what he claims is the definitive account of the crime. It's a riveting snapshot of lives scarred by tragedy, and a town left in turmoil.
The only question is: how much of Carelli's story is true?
Deeply disturbing and hilarious.

Eliza's writing is pure brilliance and she captivates you with every page.
@zoreadsbooks
Taking aim at our relationship with true crime, the brutality of teenage girls, and classicism, it was easily my favourite read of 2023 so far.
@charlotte__reads_
So cleverly written I am mind blown.
@jordslibrary
