What to expect
Brought to you by Penguin.
Till death do us part . . .
Lucy has dreamt of her wedding day for as long as she can remember.
And now the day is almost here. Her nearest and dearest are gathered on an idyllic Greek island and she just knows it's going to be perfect. It has to be.
But even the best-laid plans can go horribly wrong. Why are her parents behaving so strangely? Why won't the rather odd lady from the airport stop hanging around? Who is the silent stranger her sister brought as a plus-1?
And then they find the body.
It's going to be a day to remember.
An unputdownable thriller, perfect for fans of THE HOLIDAY and BIG LITTLE LIES.

A hugely entertaining read, The Wedding Party will transport you to an idyllic Greek island and a wedding that goes violently, compellingly wrong. The story is told with brio, humour and a wonderful sense of place.

A bridezilla, an idyllic setting, a family with secrets and mysterious strangers - this book has everything. Pacey and full of surprises - loved it.

Brilliantly thrilling.
Jenny Colgan

Tammy Cohen is consistently darkly brilliant but she has surpassed herself with this tale of the wedding party from hell. So delicious to be a fly on the wall watching the perfect day descend into nightmare. The epitome of twisted summer reading.
