Spotlight Post + GIVEAWAY: When We Were Silent

Hello Readers!

I’m back with another exciting spotlight post and I’ll be hosting another giveaway… keep reading to learn more!

When Flatiron Publishing reached out and asked if I’d be interested in participating in their latest Blog Tour, I said “I might be! What kind of novel is this?” When they replied with a “psychological thriller seeped in dark academia” I was ALL IN.

When we were silent is the breakout debut novel from Fiona McPhillips. The story focuses on Louise Manson who was once a student at Dublin’s most elite boarding school, Highfield Manor. Highfield Manor is known for its high arching granite window alcoves, overspilling lilac, large oak doors, rustic libraries and… dark, festering secrets. Louise is thrust head first into this new world and tries her best to fit in with the popular, well-off students (coming from a lower class family). Lou’s time at the school ends with murder. Fast forward 30 years later. A friend seeks retribution and is suing Highfield Manor and wants Lou to be the star witness. With her life, daughter and past on the line, Lou needs to decide whether old secrets should stay buried. Fans of My Dark Vanessa and Promising Young Women are sure be love When We Were Silent!

Flatiron Publishing was gracious enough to provide me with a free copy of When We Were Silent to give away to 1 of my lucky readers! How do you enter? It’s simple: Just leave me a comment here with your favorite book you read in 2023 (doesn’t have to be from that year, just read in that year). A winner will be selected and the book will be sent directly from the Publisher. Unfortunately, this is only open to the United States. Good luck!

Until we meet again,
Mr Geek
