What to expect

Bloomsbury presents Strange Nature by Mary Watson, read by Breffni Holahan

Jasmin has always known that monsters are real. And they wear ordinary faces.

When she was a child, she witnessed her famous, adored grandfather attempt to kill her grandmother.

Now Jasmin is eighteen, watchful and curious. She hangs out at the local college, sneaking into the lectures of charismatic professor Theo Merrick and spying on an intoxicatingly cool group of older students. She can only dream of being part of their world.

Then, when a college student dies in mysterious circumstances, Jasmin seizes her chance to join the group as they try to solve the mystery - while unwittingly unraveling her own dark past.

A slow burn dark academia thriller, Strange Nature is a compulsive read that will haunt you long after the final page.
