Description
Unputdownable . . . spookily familiar, funny, and darkly captivating. I loved it
Sally Hepworth
Question: How long does it take to tear someone's life apart?
Answer: Sometimes just one night.
From the outside, the parents of the kindergarten class at Darley Heights primary school seem to have it all. Living in the wealthy Sydney suburbs, it's a community where everyone knows each other - and secrets don't stay secret for long.
The big date in the calendar is the school's annual fundraising trivia night, but when the evening gets raucously out of hand, talk turns to partner-swapping. Initially scandalised, it's not long before a group of parents make a reckless one-night-only pact.
But in the harsh light of day, those involved must face the fallout of their behaviour. As they begin to navigate the shady aftermath of their wild night, the truth threatens to rip their perfect lives apart - and revenge turns fatal.
The Trivia Night is a gripping, domestic page-turner full of shocking reveals, perfect for fans of Liane Moriarty and Sally Hepworth.
Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?
The Trivia Night by Ali Lowe has been described as an unputdownable and captivating novel, blending spookily familiar elements with a darkly humorous and realistic depiction of suburban life. The story, laced with scandal, intrigue, and suspense, is a satire centred around a seemingly innocuous school trivia night where secrets, bad decisions, and illicit desires come to light. It's likened to the works of Liane Moriarty, praised for its addictive and smart portrayal of marriages in crisis and the humorous reflections on school gate culture.
