EVERYONE’S INVITED.
EVERYONE’S A SUSPECT.
Bristling with tension, bitter rivalries, and toxic friendships, get ready for the most hotly-anticipated thriller of 2019.
In a remote hunting lodge, deep in the Scottish wilderness, old friends gather for New Year.
The beautiful one
The golden couple
The volatile one
The new parents
The quiet one
The city boy
The outsider
The victim.
Not an accident – a murder among friends.
Thrilling! 
Loved it! What seemingly starts out as a story of old friends getting together for the festive season soon has sinister undertones . . .
Friends from university always get together for New Year; this year one of their partners has book an exclusive lodge on a highland estate and with partners, nine of them set off from London to their remote destination. But, of course, things are never quite what they seem!
This is a really well written novel, beautifully planned and executed. Lulling the reader into a false sense of security, this is full of twists and turns, shocks and surprises. Did I see what was coming? NO. Did I suspect almost everyone? YES. Clever writing kept me on tenterhooks right up until the very end. The epilogue neatly finished this off perfectly and it’s definitely one I would recommend. Discovering that this is Lucy Foley’s first thriller makes me hope that she will write more of the same please!
My thanks to publishers Harper Collins for my copy via NetGalley. This is my honest, original and unbiased review.
