'Whip-smart and uncompromising' NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW
'Quietly riveting' IRISH TIMES
'It's the perfect crime' NEW YORKER
'Impressive and complex' GUARDIAN
'Addictive' OPRAH DAILY
The riveting new novel from the author of The Great Believers, finalist for the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award
A successful film professor and podcaster, Bodie Kane is content to forget her past: the family tragedy that marred her adolescence, her four largely miserable years at a New Hampshire boarding school, and the 1995 murder of a classmate, Thalia Keith. Though the circumstances surrounding Thalia's death and the conviction of the school's athletics coach, Omar Evans, are the subject of intense fascination online, Bodie prefers-needs-to let sleeping dogs lie.
But when The Granby School invites her back to teach a two-week course, Bodie finds herself inexorably drawn to the case and its increasingly apparent flaws. In their rush to convict Omar, did the school and the police overlook other suspects? Is the real killer still out there? As she falls down the very rabbit hole she was so determined to avoid, Bodie begins to wonder if she wasn't as much of an outsider at Granby as she'd thought-if, perhaps, back in 1995, she knew something that might have held the key to solving the case.
One of the most acclaimed contemporary American writers, Rebecca Makkai reinvents herself with each of her brilliant novels. Both a transfixing mystery and a deeply felt examination of one woman's reckoning with her past, I Have Some Questions for You is her finest achievement yet.©2023 Rebecca Makkai (P)2023 Hachette Audio UK

Completely gripping
This book possessed me like a fugue state - at turns disturbing, funny and brilliantly written.

WTF
The ending made me so mad, I threw my iPods across the room. Nothing happens at end. NOTHING.

An Intelligent Whodunnit
This is a marvellous book. In this world of partisan opinions - where we take our most comfortable corner and fight that it, and only it, is right; it’s so refreshing to read a book willing to consider multiple perspectives and subtleties. So many things about my own experience came to light and I can see why reading fiction is reported to increase empathy. It has many important perspectives on modern dialogue in the internet age and some deeply chilling things to say about violence, without ever being gratuitous. If you want a high stakes thriller ride, this isn’t for you (it still has building tension and suspense). If you want to engage your intellect on important issues through a whodunnit, and vibrant characters, you’re in the right place.

It’s brilliant and will stay with me
This story is so disturbing because it is so believable. A brilliant subtle commentary on the complexity of our social conundrums around gender, assault, class and agency. And a cracking good story to boot. I haven’t been so gripped by a novel in years

This is just great
This is so good and the narration by Julia Whelan makes it sing. At times it can seem tedious but every inch contributes to a good story written with skill and cheekiness.

Unique!
I struggled just a little to get into the story in the first section, but the rest made up for it!

Great
I really enjoyed this story and the performance was top notch. I’ll definitely be delving into the author’s other works.
