What to expect
SIX COUPLES. ONE LUXURY RESORT. AND THE PERFECT MURDER . . .
You're on your honeymoon at an exclusive couples-only resort.
You receive a note warning you to 'Beware of the couple at the table nearest to yours'. At dinner that night, five other couples are present, and none of their tables is any nearer or further away than any of the others. It's as if someone has set the scene in order to make the warning note meaningless - but why would anyone do that?
You have no idea.
You also don't know that you're about to be murdered, or that once you're dead, all the evidence will suggest that no one there that night could possibly have committed the crime.
So who might be trying to warn you? And who might be about to commit the perfect impossible murder?

A fabulously twisty and entertaining read!
My Weekly

A new novel by Sophie Hannah is a cause for celebration. The Couple at The Table has everything you want in a mystery - a cryptic threat, a murder, a closed circle of suspects and an unguessable solution. Completely ingenious, entirely satisfying - a delight from start to finish
Alex Michaelides, author of THE SILENT PATIENT

I have just finished The Couple At The Table and it is BY FAR Sophie Hannah's best one yet. Relatable, funny, high concept and so satisfying I watched in awe as the pieces fell into place. Bravo!
