True Crime Story by Joseph Knox front cover

Joseph Knox presents a perfectly-pitched melange of fact and fiction in his first standalone novel. The story of the disappearance of Manchester university student Zoe Nolan is told in a series of interviews and emails conducted and exchanged seven years later. The plot is set in motion when she makes a late decision to join her identical twin, Kim, at university and they are assigned the same suite of rooms as accommodation.
