Meet Daphne St Clair: glamorous ninety-year-old grandmother, care home resident, and your new favourite serial killer. Meet Ruth Robinson: broke, depressed, aspiring true crime podcaster. When Daphne confesses to killing a number of men throughout her lifetime, she chooses Ruth to produce the podcast reporting her story.

Each episode charts Daphne's humble beginnings from the Dust Bowl in Canada to her glittering life in 70s New York - and a string of murders in her wake. Daphne tells her story. Ruth listens. And edits it. The public are hooked. Is she a feminist icon taking revenge on bad men? Or just a ruthless criminal? Then, as the podcast finale approaches, it becomes clear that neither woman has been entirely honest with the other.

Who has been controlling the narrative? After all, the truth doesn't always make for the best story...

The Benefactors

Erskine, Wendy

From the prize-winning author of Dance Move and Sweet Home, this is an astounding novel about intimate histories, class and money - and what being a parent means. Brutal, tender and rigorously intelligent, The Benefactors is a daring, polyphonic presentation of modern-day Northern Ireland. It is also very funny.
