A luxury house in France.

A gathering of wealthy, reckless friends.

And a woman on the run.



Deep in the lavender fields of Provence, nine guests arrive at a luxury holiday home.

They all know each other well, or at least they think they do.

The only stranger is the young woman hired to do the catering.

Over the course of their break, loyalties will be tested, secrets revealed, and tensions pushed to the point of no return ...



The sensational new novel from the universally acclaimed Sabine Durrant - destined to be the thriller of summer 2022.
