Top Marks for Murder competition for schools

August 23, 2019

In honour of Top Marks For Murder‘s publication, the wonderful people at Booktrust are giving away a set of my Murder Most Unladylike Mysteries to one lucky school!

All you have to do to win is find your nearest parent, carer, teacher or librarian, tell them the answer to the (very easy) question and they’ll be entered in the draw to win. This is only open to adults in the UK and Ireland because the prize needs to go to a school in the UK or Ireland – meaning that you and all of your friends will have access to the books if your friendly adult wins!

The competition closes on the 20th September 2019, and Booktrust are entirely in charge of choosing the winner and sending them the prize – I have nothing to do with this competition, so I won’t be able to help anyone win (sorry!).

While you’re waiting to find out the winner, though, you can read my article for Booktrust on why it’s important for me to write about LGBTQ+ characters in my books, the inspiration for this competition!

Good luck, detectives – and I hope you’re enjoying Top Marks for Murder.
