Pet, is a chilling new psychological thriller from internationally bestselling author Catherine Chidgey which came on the 8th of June. Told from a single point of view, so as not to show the hand of the novel’s other characters, Pet is an unflinching examination of the corrosive power of guilt and the extent some people will go to cover their tracks.

Because on Various Artists we consider all creative endeavours to be artmaking in the broadest sense, and writing an art form very worthy of our time, this week Frances caught up with the creative mind behind Pet to hear about how it came to fruition.
