Was in St Andrews last Saturday, with no book to read going home. So I finally picked up this in @ToppingsStAs from @barrington_cf
Delighted to discover I was a student when the bookโs set, just starting my third year, living in Salliesโ annex.
AND my grandad had a green Uno!
@rfraser1c Iโm chuffed to receive your message, Richard. Thank you for the great feedback. It was fun setting the story in the 90s. I too was a divinity student back then (though I changed after a year) and most of the essay titles in the book are my real old ones! So glad you enjoyed.
Tonight's the night! Join us this evening at St Peter's Church to get your teeth into some thrilling 90's dark academia with @barrington_cf's new novel When We Were Killers - a tale of ritualistic obsession turned deadly. Tickets are available at the door! https://t.co/3Gw5ugLgw6

@_BarbaraMair Iโm so sorry to read this Barbara. Iโve not heard the audiobook myself, but Iโll bring this to my publisherโs attention. Itโs very sad if the editing has spoiled the experience for you. But thank you for persevering and also raising this directly with me.
Set at St Andrews in the 90s, When We Were Killers is a dark academia thriller about five friends and their deadly obsessions, midnight rituals, and fierce rivalries. And next week, we have @barrington_cf coming to #Linlithgow to talk about it! Tickets: https://t.co/6QiGOLY2sM

Dark, thought-provoking, gripping, tense yet magical and utterly moving. Descriptive and beautifully written. Thank you @barrington_cf & @NetGalley for providing me with my first ARC and this opportunity to read such a great book.
