About The School Gates
When Lola Martinez's son, Luca, starts school, she feels that she'll never fit in with the yummy mummies in the playground. Confident, married to wealthy men, with ample free time, they are everything she isn't. However, Lola is invited into the inner circle, surrounded by seemingly friendly people, even if Lola's silence about her child's father puzzles them. Despite herself, Lola quickly becomes involved in playground politics, making as many enemies as friends. But then Lola is brutally murdered, her death rocking the close-knit community. As the police investigate the case, they discover that Lola was hiding many secrets - as are the mums in her new social circle. But who had the most reason to kill her? And who else might unwittingly hold the answers to what happened that night?
