Description
YOU'D DIE FOR THEM. THEY'D KILL FOR YOU. . . An intoxicating upmarket thriller with shades of The Secret History for the Me Too era Clare arrives at the University of Edinburgh with a secret. This is her chance for a blank slate - finally she can become the person she was meant to be. And then she meets Tabitha. Tabitha is charismatic, very beautiful and intimidatingly rich. Clare is immediately sucked into her enigmatic circle of friends and their dizzying world of sophisticated dinner parties and summers in France. The new life she hoped for has begun. Then Tabitha reveals the little project they're working on. A project they need Clare to help them with. And Clare has no way to refuse. Because they know what she did . . .
Author Biography
Heather Darwent is based just outside of Edinburgh. Originally from Yorkshire, she came to Scotland to study History of Art at the University of Edinburgh, like her character Clare, and ended up never quite leaving. When she's not writing, you'll find her reading chaotic non-fiction about Silicon Valley and swimming in the sea . . . or being unbearably boring in conversation about swimming in the sea. The Things We Do To Our Friends is her debut novel.
ReviewsA brilliantly unsettling and memorable protagonist -- Rosemary Hennigan Sinister, compelling, utterly spellbinding. I couldn't put it down! -- Vikki Patis, Girl, Lost Menacing and suspenseful with drippings of Donna Tartt -- Victoria Selman, Blood for Blood 'A deliciously dark story of toxic friendship' -- Nikki Smith, Look What You Made Me Do
