Big Little Truths

Ten years on, the Pirriwee mothers are back, and a severed finger has turned up at the school.
Reading guide
Big Little Lies is the first novel about these characters, so reading it first will give you the history behind the friendships and the quiz night. Big Little Truths can be read on its own, but it works best as the follow-up.
Ten years after the ill-fated quiz night at Pirriwee High, Madeline, Celeste and Jane still feel the fallout. Their children are now teenagers, and each mother has her own private worries. When the school receives an anonymous package containing a severed finger, suspicion starts to spread, and the stakes keep getting higher.

Description

Ten years after the disastrous quiz night at Pirriwee High, Madeline, Celeste and Jane are still living with the fallout. Their children are now grumpy teenagers, and the three friends have troubles of their own. Madeline is carefully planning her fiftieth birthday party, unaware she is about to be upstaged. Jane is so busy congratulating herself on her marriage to Tom that she hasn't noticed it is faltering. Celeste, haunted by her late husband, dreads what her mother-in-law will do next. Then the school receives an anonymous package containing a severed human finger, and suspicion starts to spread.

This is the sequel to Big Little Lies, the novel behind the award-winning television series, and it keeps the same mix of sharp comedy, loyal friendship and creeping dread. It is a treat for anyone who has ever wondered what became of those three women, and the stakes keep rising as the secrets come out.
