A razor-sharp revenge thriller that blows the whistle on the cutthroat world of corporate law.

New graduate Fei Fei Chou is an outlier at her prestigious law firm.

She's too quiet.

She wears too much makeup.

She’s only here because the boss has a thing for Asians.

But Fei isn’t here to climb the corporate ladder – she’s here for revenge.

Thirty years ago, three schoolgirls were kidnapped and abused by a man who’s never been identified. The information Fei needs to find him is buried somewhere in the firm’s records.

Deliberately placing herself in harm’s way, Fei will uncover a secret history of power and privilege that haunts not only her firm, but the nation itself.

Taut, riveting and blackly humorous, The Graduate is a mesmerising legal thriller and a masterfully dark crime debut from a beloved Australian writer.
