MISS HAV

MISS HAV

Make war, not love

Beth Harvey is proud to be the youngest ever Head of English at a remote, prestigious boarding school. Good at her job and set in her ways, she rarely even leaves the grounds. Since her engagement to the school’s charismatic music teacher, Steve, she feels she has nothing left to wish for. But after Steve abruptly breaks off their engagement, Beth’s perfectly curated little life begins to fall apart.

When new student Mia Brumby joins the sixth form, Beth finds herself drawn to the bright young woman with a strange, possessive fascination. Still smarting from her humiliation at Steve’s hands, she recruits Mia to help her punish the man for the pain he caused her. But Beth hasn’t reckoned on Mia having plans of her own…

A modern reimagining of one of literature’s most iconic characters, MISS HAV is a thorny new story about desire, control, and the dark, twisted impulses that we’d all prefer to hide.
