The official story is that it was an accident. Ivy is starting to believe it wasn't.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen a scholarship of her own puts her under the same kind of scrutiny Bríd once faced, Ivy finds a hidden notebook, a closed-ranks secret society calling itself the Wreckers' Table, and a headmaster who has spent four decades making sure nobody asks the right questions. The only people willing to help her are a best friend who won't let her go it alone, a fisherman's son from the mainland who keeps showing up exactly when she needs him, and — improbably — the one girl at Duncarragh with every reason to protect the school's secrets instead of her.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs the Midwinter Watch approaches and the causeway floods again, Ivy has to decide how far she's willing to go to make sure she isn't the fourth girl this school quietly erases.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA clean, slow-burn YA gothic mystery about institutions that protect themselves instead of the people inside them — and the girls who refuse to stay quiet about it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/dp\/B0HJWBBKBV\" class=\"wb-amz\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#042535;color:#fff;padding:12px 28px;border-radius:999px;text-decoration:none;font-family:Inter,sans-serif;font-weight:600;letter-spacing:.02em;\"\u003eBuy on Amazon →\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"F Cosgrove","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":58470413173067,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0981\/4330\/6059\/files\/THE_FOURTH_GIRL_ebook_cover_14_09_26_a097ddc2-cc99-4bf8-861c-999592ead896.jpg?v=1789399128","url":"https:\/\/www.wildbeauty.store\/products\/the-fourth-girl","provider":"Wild Beauty","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
