Description
Sunday Times bestselling author Gilly Macmillan's latest thriller is a compulsive story of a weekend getaway which spirals out of control. Perfect for fans of Lucy Foley's The Hunting Party and Ruth Ware's In A Dark Dark Wood. 'Fast paced and incredibly compelling' Shari Lapena ___________________________________ By the time you read this, I'll have killed one of your husbands. In an isolated retreat, deep in the Northumbria moors, three women arrive for a weekend getaway. Their husbands will be joining them in the morning. Or so they think. But when they get to Dark Fell Barn, the women find a devastating note that claims one of their husbands has been murdered. Their phones are out of range. There's no internet. They're stranded. And a storm's coming in. Friendships fracture and the situation spins out of control as each wife tries to find out what's going on, who is responsible and which husband has been targeted. This was a tight-knit group. They've survived a lot. But they won't weather this. Because someone has decided that enough is enough. That it's time for a reckoning. _____________________________________ Praise for Gilly Macmillan- 'White-knuckled suspense' Tess Gerritsen 'Infused with a creeping sense of dread' Sarah Vaughan 'Dark, tense and very clever' Claire Douglas 'You're in for the twistiest of rides!' Lesley Kara 'Bold, suspenseful and impossible to put down' Samantha Downing
