The Rosemary

Caroline de Costa

Kirwan House School was a place of harmony, until 1990, when popular senior student Jessica Vaughan disappeared without a trace. A national search followed, but Jess was never found. Her circle of seven friends was left to mourn and wonder for more than thirty years.

Now, crime writer Neroli Woodhouse uncovers a chilling link between Kirwan, a fatal accident in rural New Zealand in 1975, and the recent discovery of a young woman’s skeleton on a Far North Queensland beach.

As Neroli joins forces with police and detective Cass Diamond, shocking truths emerge. The mystery of Jess’s disappearance is about to be solved, but the answers are more startling than anyone imagined.

A gripping story of friendship, loss, and secrets buried deep in time.
