Zoe Maisey is a seventeen-year-old musical prodigy with a genius IQ. Three years ago, she was involved in a tragic incident that left three classmates dead. She served her time, and now her mother, Maria, is resolved to keep that devastating fact tucked far away from their new beginning, hiding the past even from her new husband and demanding that Zoe do the same.

Tonight Zoe is giving a recital that Maria has been planning for months. It needs to be the performance of Zoe's life. But instead, by the end of the evening, Maria is dead.

In the aftermath, everyone--police, family, Zoe's former solicitor, and Zoe herself--tries to piece together what happened. But as Zoe knows all too well, the truth is rarely straightforward, and the closer we are to someone, the less we may see.

What She Knew is written by Gilly Macmillan, who has been nominated for an Edgar Award and is a New York Times bestselling novelist. She was born in Swindon, Wiltshire, and spent her late adolescence in Northern California. Before starting a family, she worked at The Burlington Magazine and the Hayward Gallery. She's worked as a part-time photography lecturer since then, and now writes full-time. She is currently based in Bristol, UK.
