From Little Stack
Despite only being introduced to Janice’s books in 2024, they’re now some of my all-time favourites! The brilliant thing about Janice’s crime novels is that they’re told through mixed media. Think emails, message boards, text messages - all of her books are written this way and they work so incredibly well.
Mind-boggling and masterfully plotted, The Examiner follows six students on a university art course, as well as an external examiner. When assessing the students’ work, he’s convinced a student was killed and that the others covered it up. We go through evidence alongside the examiner to reveal the truth. An immersive and absorbing read.
Told in emails, text messages, and essays, this innovative page-turner follows a group of students in an art master’s program that goes dangerously awry, from the internationally bestselling "new queen of crime" (Electric Literature) Janice Hallett.
University professor Gela Nathaniel must make her new master’s program in multimedia art succeed. If it doesn’t, then Royal Hastings University will cut her funding and she’ll be out of the job she loves.
The six students in this inaugural course will be key to that success…but how well has she selected the team? The students include a talented young sculptor who is determined to graduate with top grades, a former gallery owner with limited artistic skills, a single mother more interested in a paycheck than homework, a people pleaser who struggles with technology, a marketing executive suffering from burnout, and a successful artist who seems rather overqualified for the program.
At the end of the academic year, when the examiner arrives to grade the students’ final project, he finds himself asking what happened. Because if someone in that course isn’t in mortal danger, then they are already dead. But who, and why? He wants us to read through the students’ coursework, texts, message boards, and final essays to see if we can find the answers.
Only one thing is certain: nothing about this course has been left to chance, and each of these students has their own very different agenda.
