Few secrets are as deeply entrenched as those we buried in our youth, and few have the same potential to haunt us. Meet three authors who have brilliantly captured the power of hidden adolescent truths and deadly consequences. 

Rabbits by Hugo Rifkind is a darkly funny novel of unspoken truths as the elite rage against the dying of their light. A town suffocating in its own secrets is at the dark heart of Colin Walsh’s Kala, a heartbreaking but brutal Irish noir. Ellie Keel’s The Four is a beautifully gripping exploration of guilt as the past takes its revenge on the present.
