'An alchemical work that blends truth and art into a heady, addictive brew' Atlantic
Sarah and David are in love - the obsessive, uncertain love of teenagers on the edge of adulthood. They have just started their first term at a performing arts school, where the rules are made by their magnetic drama instructor. Enclosing his students in a rarefied bubble where performance is everything, Mr Kingsley initiates them into a dangerous game that blurs the boundary between teacher and students.
Two decades on we learn that what we were told about these teenagers' lives is not completely true, but not completely false either. The real story surrounding Sarah, David and their fellow students is larger and darker than we imagined, and the consequences have lasted a lifetime.
Trust Exercise is an enthralling, captivating novel about how we define consent and what we lose, gain and never get over as we navigate our way into adulthood.

Trust Exercise is Choi's fifth novel, and without a doubt her most ingenious yet. Sure, submitting to it is a "trust exercise" all of its own, but the razzmatazz that awaits is well worth it. (Lucy Scholes FT)
An intelligent and layered portrait of a school's legacy ... Trust Exercise makes something dramatic and memorable from the simple elements of a teen movie. (New Yorker)
A devastatingly apt analysis of what men have gotten away with. (The New York Times)
An electrifying novel that speaks directly to the #metoo movement
