THE TENSE TWIST-FILLED RICHARD AND JUDY BOOK CLUB PICK FOR SPRING 2020 FROM THE #1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE OUTCAST
Family secrets can be deadly…
Newly-weds Dan and Bea decide to escape London. Driving through France in their beaten-up car they anticipate a long lazy summer, worlds away from their ordinary lives.
But their idyll cannot last. Stopping off to see Bea’s brother at his crumbling hotel, the trio are joined unexpectedly by Bea’s ultra-wealthy parents. Dan has never understood Bea’s deep discomfort around them but living together in such close proximity he begins to sense something is very wrong.
Just as tensions reach breaking point, brutal tragedy strikes, exposing decades of secrets and silence that threaten to destroy them all.

Worth a Listen
A book that twists and turns both in terms of plot and genre. Part a condemnation of the filthy rich and of the power of money, part social commentary, part whodunnit, and part thriller, it contains one of the most interesting and monstrous characters I have come across in a long time, Griff, brilliantly brought to life by Abigail Thaw, is a totally ruthless billionaire but keeps us entertained whenever he is in a scene. The other main characters are also well depicted and interpreted. I found the melodrama at the end rather drawn out but that is my only complaint.
