FIVE OLD FRIENDS.
A weekend on the wild, beautiful Dorset coast. Seven adults, six kids. A nanny: the ultimate special treat.
It should be perfect: old friends, a stunning house, champagne and windswept beaches. But it isn’t.
Past grudges won’t rest. Secrets won’t stay put.
And by the end of the weekend, at least one of them will be dead.
Perfect for fans of THE HUNTING PARTY by Lucy Foley and ONE OF THE GIRLS by Lucy Clarke, this is a gripping locked-room thriller brimming with secrets and lies.
