Happy Woman

Perhaps all this time I was merely an origami of a happy woman. Complicated to put together, easy to rip to shreds.

Gwynne Hogg is an enviable woman – until she discovers her beloved dad is a serial killer. 

As her dad’s decades-old secrets finally catch up with him, Gwynne struggles to reconcile the man she trusted most with the crimes he’s accused of. She tries to process it all while keeping the wheels of her ‘normal’ life turning. That means caring for her depressed mum, enduring the stares of other parents on the nursery run, and showing up for clients at her PR firm, all under the relentless gaze of the media. 

But as the court case unfolds, Gwynne can’t shake the fear that a murderous gene might live inside her too.

Her thoughts grow darker, her once-happy life unravels, and she begins to wonder what she herself might be capable of …

Praise for THE CONCIERGE:

‘Corson has a truly fresh voice in the cosy crime scene. It is fun and engaging, and the twists will have tongues wagging at the coffee machines come Monday morning. The Concierge is pure entertainment.’ – The Australian

‘Cavengreen is far from your average hotel.’ – Australian Women’s Weekly

‘a comforting mystery with an ending no one could predict.’ – That’s Life

‘The mystery surrounding this whodunnit is well crafted and offers many false leads and red herrings before the truth is uncovered. Cavengreen Hotel's world of luxury and the opulence is beautifully detailed as are the lives of the characters caught up in the drama of a terrible crime, the subsequent police investigation, false confessions and a murder trial. A modern take on an Agatha Christie staple, The Concierge will keep fans of Sophie Hannah and Richard Osman entertained.’ – Books+Publishing
