ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

"The Broken Girls" by Simone St. James follows Fiona Sheridan, a journalist drawn into the mysteries of a former boarding school, Idlewild Hall. The story shifts between two timelines, 1950 and 2014, revealing the dark secrets of the school and its impact on the lives of the girls who attended it.

As Fiona investigates, she uncovers a network of messages left by former students in textbooks. She also discovers the truth behind the disappearance of a student named Sonia Gallipeau, and a local legend, Mary Hand.

The narrative explores themes of memory, truth, and justice, as well as the interconnectedness of past and present. Fiona's personal connection to the school, and her own sister's death, leads her down a dangerous path as she tries to uncover the long-buried secrets of Idlewild, exposing corruption, and bringing closure to the broken girls.
