Can't believe it.Asha: Not heard anything. What's happened? Pam Geoffreysmum: What's he done this time? They're going co-ed, aren't they? I knew this would happen. Clare Withoutani: Can't believe it, Becky. I'm in shock.Pam Geoffreysmum: Are we going co-ed? Becky Rupertsmum: No, Pam. Newhall died. Pam Geoffreysmum: Oh GOD. Seriously??!! Can't believe it.

Laura Marshall, author of Friend Request 'Absolutely loved this witty, wicked and cleverly plotted story, with its sharply-drawn characters and skewering of privilege and class.
