THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER.
The new pulse-pounding and unputdownable thriller from the author of the number one bestseller THE COUPLE NEXT DOOR, and A STRANGER IN THE HOUSE.
'Tense.
Unpredictable.
Unputdownable.
Shari Lapena's novels are domestic noir at its finest' Simon Kernick ____________________ We can't choose the strangers we meet.
As the guests arrive at beautiful, remote Mitchell's Inn, they're all looking forward to a relaxing weekend deep in the forest, miles from anywhere.
They watch their fellow guests with interest, from a polite distance.
Usually we can avoid the people who make us nervous, make us afraid.
With a violent storm raging, the group finds itself completely cut off from the outside world.
Nobody can get in - or out.
And then the first body is found .
and the horrifying truth comes to light.
There's a killer among them - and nowhere to run.
Until we find ourselves in a situation we can't escape.
Trapped.
