‘I LOVED IT, I RACED THROUGH IT. IT'S JUST FANTASTIC WRITING’ SARAH JESSICA PARKER

‘EXTREMELY SMART, IMPOSSIBLY FUNNY, AND JUST PLAIN FUN TO READ’ CARO CLAIRE BURKE, AUTHOR OF YESTERYEAR

‘A VOICE LIKE NO OTHER’ LENA DUNHAM

Think your family is dysfunctional? Meet the Flynns.

For the three Flynn daughters, it’s been disastrous since their parents opened up their marriage. Abigail, the eldest, is dating an ex-soldier several years her senior nicknamed ‘War Crimes Wes’. Louise, the middle child, maintains a secret correspondence with an online terrorist. And the brilliant youngest, Harper, is being sent to a wilderness reform camp due to her insistence that someone – or something – is monitoring the town’s citizens.

Casting a shadow across their lives is Paul Alabaster, a nefarious local billionaire. Rumours of corruption circulate, but no one dares dig too deep. No one except Harper, whose obsession with Alabaster’s machinations sends the family hurtling into a criminal conspiracy – one that may just, finally, bring them closer together.

Laugh-out-loud funny, unexpectedly moving – Lost Lambs is both a blistering satire of our present moment and a compassionate portrait of a family trying to stay human in Musk’s America. * Paul Murray, author of The Bee Sting *
Lost Lambs was a delight! It’s eccentric, funny, deeply human, and full of characters you can’t stop thinking about. Madeline Cash has such a distinct voice, balancing absurdity with genuine emotion in a way that feels effortless. I loved every page and already wish I could read it again for the first time. * Emma Roberts *
I laughed so hard I slipped a disc. I read this book 14 times, I’m fanatical about it. I want to know this family, live in this town, and help solve this timely mystery. I have separation anxiety from these characters I love them so much. * Billie Piper *
