Summary

It’s the summer of 1984, and there is a sense of unease on the troubled Sweetmeadows estate. The residents are in shock after the suspicious death of a baby.

Journalist Clare Jackson follows the story as police bungle the inquiry and struggle to contain the escalating violence. Haunted by a personal trauma, Clare is shadowed by nine-year-old Amy, a bright but neglected little girl who seems to know more about the incident than she's letting on.

As the days go on and the killer is not found, Clare ignores warnings not to get too close to her stories and, in doing so, puts her own life in jeopardy.

"Angst-laden psychological thriller." (Publishers Weekly)
"This Little Piggy is a gripping, devastating and utterly absorbing read. I found myself thinking of the characters long after the book had ended." (Emma Kavanagh)
"Deeply compelling, quietly threatening." (Caro Ramsay)
