An unusual psychological thriller, nominated for the Dublin Literary Prize.

Like all the girls in her class, twelve-year-old Justina is captivated by her new teacher, Mrs. Price—young, beautiful, and charismatic. Mrs. Price's charm is irresistible, and everyone dreams of becoming her favorite, her "chick."

When things start disappearing at school, everyone begins to suspect one another, and Justina begins to sense that something is amiss. With every twist, this complex story of deception and soul-crushing guilt takes an increasingly disturbing turn.

Set in New Zealand in the 1980s, the story raises themes that will become important two decades later: childhood trauma, manipulation, abuse, adult despotism, infantilism, and self-affirmation at the expense of others.
