What to expect
It's not the lies that kill you. It's the truth.
They predicted Ivo would become a tycoon
They predicted Ayda would go on to become a hotshot lawyer
They didn’t predict that Lily would be dead
Twenty years ago, nine university friends made a series of predictions about what would happen to each of them after college. Now they’ve all gathered together for the weekend. Not for a reunion but for a reveal.
Some of them have gone on to staggering success, others to more mundane lives. And one of them is missing.
Before her death Lily seemed agitated. Even scared. In the weeks before her death, she called Maggie, wanting to talk but then refusing to say what was frightening her. Now Maggie is beginning to realise that not everyone at the house this weekend is who they appeared to be.
And those who are lying are prepared to do anything to stop the truth coming out.
An unputdownable page-turner about old friends and new betrayals from an award winning thriller writer at the very top of her game, this is unmissable reading group suspense fiction.
Critics Review
A romantic tale of detection and disillusion, it is very well written and genuinely creepy
This is a very atmospheric tale with well-drawn characters and a surprising ending
Seriously good. Ingenious plotting and the sort of writing that makes you pause and wish you’d penned that. Plus Dartmoor, in all its mercurial, desolate beauty is brilliantly rendered
A reminder that we are in something of a new Golden Age for contemporary crime fiction with this impeccably plotted riff on The Secret History… possibly the most accomplished spin on a familiar plot device, crammed full of idiosyncratic characterisations
Dangerous things, reunions. Ego, jealousy, different bank account balances. It’s a recipe for conflict. In Holly Watt’s new thriller it might be a recipe for murder too
It’s a thrilling premise with heart-racing execution. Watt keeps you second-guessing as you race through to the chilling denouement. Thought-provoking and unnerving, this is a smart page-turner with killer secrets and dark twists, populated with characters who you’ll love to hate. Absolute book club dynamite – a must-read!
Agatha Christie meets The Big Chill – I loved it! An intricate plot, intriguing characters, edge-of-the seat suspense – this has got it all!
A meticulously plotted tale of buried secrets and unsettled scores that keeps you gleefully guessing as the tension builds to a pitch-perfect reveal
Inspired . . . exquisitely plotted and brilliantly executed . . . a genuine page turner
Totally gripping. A wildly original take on what happens when gilded youth gets all tarnished and bloody. Holly Watt teaches us to chose our friends wisely, because it can get horribly messy and altogether fatal otherwise. A top-notch read written by a master of the art. Loved it
You either got it or you don’t … and Holly Watt absolutely has
Watt’s prose crackles with energy
Holly Watt is a master storyteller
