What to expect
'I read it in one sitting.' Niamh Ní Mhaoileoin, author of Ordinary Saints
White Lotus meets The Talented Mr Ripley in this sun-drenched psychological thriller set against the glittering backdrop of the Amalfi Coast in the sweltering summer of 1961 - where nothing is as it seems...
The perfect couple. Beautiful young bride Clara Carmichael and her wealthy new husband Spencer arrive on the Amalfi Coast. A glorious month of dazzling blue seas, lemon trees heavy with fruit, and their sparkling, marble-clad honeymoon suite stretches ahead of them.
The perfect honeymoon. For the newlyweds, the days slip by in a haze of boat rides, sun-bathing on the private beach, and cocktails beneath a star-studded sky. It's paradise - until a note is slipped under their door, and everything unravels.
The perfect lie? In black ink, the message is unmistakable: He's lying to you. Suddenly, Clara questions everything. Why does Spencer seem so familiar with their hotel? Why does she have the feeling she's being watched?
As she winds through the twists and turns of Amalfi Coast's sun-bleached alleyways and jagged cliffs, Clara is forced to confront the truth: the man she married may not be who he says he is. And the closer she gets to the answers, the more danger she's in.
Seductive, suspenseful and dripping with old-world glamour, this is an addictive story of obsession, betrayal, and the darkness hiding just beneath the shimmering surface.
'The Honeymoon Suite is beautiful on the surface and vicious underneath, full of elegant prose and breathless suspense. I devoured it.' Emily Freud, author of What She Left Behind
'Rebecca Taylor McKay has conjured up a slice of perfect intrigue with this sun drenched but dark and unsettling Italian honeymoon thriller . . . This is a superior vintage style thriller.' Chris Bridges, author of Sick to Death
'A sumptuous and sinister thriller that asks whether any of us truly know the person we marry . . . an instant classic.' Rebecca Hannigan, author of Darkrooms
'Dripping with atmosphere and glamour . . . I was hooked!' Jessica Bull, author of Miss Austen Investigates
