Beschreibung des Verlags
In the vein of Lucy Foley and Ruth Ware, a deliciously wicked and atmospheric thriller about a group of old friends who plan to reconnect on an African safari vacation, but soon learn that their wild pasts have finally caught up with them.
“A wonderfully atmospheric thriller of secrets, lies and betrayals . . . a heart-stopping rollercoaster of a read.” —B.A. Paris, author of Behind Closed Doors
FOUR FRIENDS. A LUXURY RETREAT. IT’S GOING TO BE MURDER.
It’s been years since Grace, Felicity, Alice, and Hannah were together. The “Wild Girls,” as they were once called, are no longer so wild. Alice is a teacher. Hannah has a new baby. Grace is a homebody. Only Felicity seems to have retained her former spark.
Then Felicity invites them all on the weekend of a lifetime—a birthday bash in Botswana. It will be a chance to have fun and rekindle their once bomb-proof friendship… and finally put that one horrible night, all those years ago, behind them for good.
But soon after arriving at the luxury safari lodge, a feeling of unease settles over them. There’s no sign of the party that was promised. There’s no phone signal. They are on their own… and things start to go very, very wrong.
A fresh approach to the classic locked-room mystery, The Wild Girls is sure to appeal to fans of Ruth Ware and Lucy Foley.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
The four longtime friends at the center of this enjoyable psychological thriller from British author Morgan (The Babysitter) used to call themselves "the wild girls" until an incident drove a wedge among them two years earlier. Now, teacher Alice Warner, new mother Hannah Jones, and introvert Grace Carter, all Londoners, each receive an invitation from Felicity Denbigh, with whom they lost contact after Felicity moved to Manhattan with her boyfriend, to attend her 30th birthday party in Botswana, all expenses paid. When Alice, Hannah, and Grace, who each view the trip as a way to settle past grievances, arrive in Botswana, they're driven from the airport to Deception Valley Lodges, a luxury resort—except there are no other guests and no birthday celebration, and with no phone signal or internet connection, they can't reach the outside world. Terror lurks in every crevice of the resort while dangerous animals roam in the bush, and past deeds that pulled apart the friends become life threatening. The suspense ramps up as the plot evolves into a locked-room mystery. This perceptive look at female friendship and betrayal will resonate with many.
