Eerie and menacing, timely and moving, Impossible Causes is an unputdownable novel that examines the consequences of silence kept at young women's expense.


**'A tightly told and powerful story of sins, lies and secrets long held' i


'This highly atmospheric tale is both thrilling and poignant' Heat**


For seven months of the year, the remote island of Lark is fogbound, cut off completely from the mainland. The arrival of three strangers is the cause of much speculation: the first is a charismatic young teacher – the only male teacher on the island – the other two, a mother and her teenage daughter, seeking a place to hide from unspeakable tragedy.


What have they come to escape? What will they find waiting for them on Lark?


And whose body will soon be found lying in the island's stone circle?

Julie is a recent recipient of an Arts Council England Award and a K Blundell Trust Award to research and develop stories in Berlin and in her hometown Peterborough, and she is currently under commission to write a free and modern adaptation of The Railway Children for Eastern Angles Theatre.
