Sarah Easter Collins: Things Don't Break on Their Own

Sarah Easter Collins grew up in Kent and studied at Exeter University before moving to Botswana, and later Thailand and Malawi, as part of the Teachers for Botswana Recruitment Scheme where she was posted to Maun, a village on the edge of the Okavango Delta – there she lived in a rondavel, bought a bicycle, adopted some stray animals, and was never happier. When not writing, she works as an artist.

She will be chatting about her brilliantly received debut novel Things Don't Break on Their Own, with the bestselling author, Hazel Prior. Nobody ever found out what happened to Laika Martenwood, the girl who vanished without a trace on her way to school one morning. But for her sister Willa, life shattered into tiny pieces that day, and she has never been able to put them back together again. But when a dinner party conversation about childhood memories spirals out of control, a shattering revelation from one of the guests forces Willa to rethink everything she thought she knew about her past. And, out of the debris of that explosive evening, the truth of what really happened begins to emerge. Piece by piece.
