Description

Throw Me to the Wolves by Patrick McGuinness is a perceptive and pertinent novel about childhood and memory. A young woman's murder sets off a media lynching, but it's the story of her former teacher that really draws attention.

The case against him is built on lies and half-truths, but as two detectives dig deeper, they uncover secrets from their own pasts. The novel weaves together two narratives: the present-day investigation and a young man's memories of his childhood in 80s England.

This beautifully written and psychologically acute novel explores the corrupt power of media and the lasting impact of abuse and bullying on individuals and society. With its unique blend of style, surprise, and lyricism, Throw Me to the Wolves is a thought-provoking read that will leave you thinking long after you finish the book.
