What to expect
What if a prank leads to murder?
When Freya arrives at her dream job with the city's hottest start-up, she can't wait to begin a new and exciting life, including dating her new colleague Jay.
However, Nicole, Jay's ex and fellow employee, seems intent on making her life a misery. After a big deadline, where Nicole continually picks on her, Freya snaps and tells Jay about the bullying and together they concoct a revenge prank.
The next morning, Nicole is found dead in her apartment . . .
Is this just a prank gone wrong? Or does Freya know someone who is capable of murder - and could she be next?
Critics Review
With plenty of twists and turns throughout, this thriller will keep you guessing. You’ll be gripped right up until the last page
A great thriller about a situation that will be oh so familiar to many people – but taken to a very dark extreme. It’s pacy and shocking, but written with real heart too
Timely and pacy, with a devastating and totally unexpected twist, I devoured this in one sitting
The Pact should go straight to the top of your must-read list. Dark, twisty and original. I loved it
