Solitaire is the second book Alice wrote, but the first that was published.However, Alice has said that neither Solitaire not Heartstopper takes place in any specific year. Although Solitaire was originally set in 2011, Heartstopper takes place in 2016, which means that it would technically take place in January 2017 in the updated timeline.Some of the characters of Solitaire also appear in Party Girls and Radio Silence. Solitaire has two spinoff novellas: Nick and Charlie and This Winter. Begrudgingly, Tori assists eighteen-year-old year 13 student, Michael Holden in his 'investigation' into the prank group, in doing so, developing a reluctant friendship. Throughout the novel, Tori creates (and destroys) relationships, debatably platonic or romantic, while managing family issues, mental health and the uprise of a local 'prankster' group, whose actions are both growing concerning and dangerous. Solitaire follows a year 12 student, sixteen-year-old chronic pessimist, Tori Spring. I don’t know what Solitaire are trying to do, and I don’t care about Michael Holden. Things were very different, I guess, but that’s all over now. Last year – before all that stuff with Charlie and before I had to face the harsh realities of A-Levels and university applications and the fact that one day I really will have to start talking to people – I had friends. In case you’re wondering, this is not a love story.
