Honno Signs Meredith Miller's new book Fall River

Honno is excited to announce that we have signed Meredith Miller’s third novel Fall River, a dark, psychological mystery set against the backdrop of the strange pull of the River Tamar.

When fierce, young Alice disappears, shock waves ripple through the riverside town of Saltash. As her cousin Khadija returns on the night train, the rest of the town is still asleep. They’ll wake up that morning to find that everything, and nothing, has changed.

In this small-town drama, past and present relationships collide, weaving multiple narratives packed with intrigue. Meredith Miller skilfully crafts an unfolding story with a fresh perspective on contemporary society and shedding light on the overlooked corners of Britain.

A must read for book clubs, this exciting new literary mystery will appeal to fans of Kate Atkinson and readers of mysteries, crime and Cornish fiction.

“This story swept me away, utterly beguiled by the song of Meredith Miller's storytelling. A world full of liminal spaces, conversations whispered and overheard. Mystery, the supernatural and the grit of life - the recipe of a book I could not refuse.” Rebecca Parfitt - Commissioning Editor, Honno

We are pleased to announce this signing the week of Frankfurt Book Fair, where our Desk Editor Gemma June Howell will be representing Honno at the Wales Stand, Halle/Stand 4.1 G20.
