The Centre

Be your best self, even if it kills you.

Sisters Annie and Clover have always been close. So when Annie turns up, heartbroken and jobless on Clover's doorstep, she happily takes her in.

Sunny, optimistic Clover is living her best life on the Northern Beaches of Sydney. She’s attending workshops at the Centre for Personal Excellence, lead by the beautiful and elusive Lumelia, a wellness influencer and personal transformation guru. The Centre seems to have everyone under its spell, except for Annie, who can’t afford to invest in its programs. As Annie’s trying to get back on her feet, Clover is sinking further and further into her new-found self-development community.

Annie’s attempts to pull her sister away from the allure of the Centre and its devoted followers only push Clover deeper, and Annie realises that the Centre may be hiding some very dark secrets.

Is the Centre what finally breaks the sisters apart, or can Annie save Clover before it’s too late? It’s fast becoming a matter of life or death.

‘A gripping, utterly immersive novel that pulls readers into a darkening vortex of lies, manipulation, and coercive control. With a striking setting and vividly drawn characters, Tunnicliffe captures the unsettling intimacy of power and vulnerability with piercing insight. A compulsive read.’ ROSE CARLYLE, author of No One Will Know and The Girl in the Mirror

‘An addictive, thoughtful novel about how the human quest for belonging and self-improvement can make us vulnerable to modern wellness shamans and the agony of trying to protect a loved one who has fallen into the vortex. Another beautifully observed and wildly entertaining novel from Hannah Tunnicliffe.’ RACHEL PARIS, author of See How They Fall
