Totally original and utterly compelling, with a voice all of its own, this is the outstanding new thriller from the no. 1 internationally bestselling author of The Silent Patient, Alex Michaelides. ‘There were seven of us in all, trapped on the island. One of us was a murderer …’ On a small private Greek island, former movie star Lana Farrar – an old friend – invites a select group of us to stay. It’ll be hot, sunny, perfect. A chance to relax and reconnect – and maybe for a few hidden truths to come out. Because nothing on this island is quite what it seems. Not Lana. Not her guests. Certainly not the murderer – furiously plotting their crime … But who am I? My name is Elliot Chase, and I’m going to tell you a story unlike any you’ve ever heard. ‘My favourite Alex Michaelides yet – the undisputed master of the twist,’ Lucy Foley.
