About this listen

The captivating new thriller, perfect for fans of Saltburn

'Perfect for fans of tales in which the rich and entitled get their comeuppance… deliciously twisty' Daily Mail

'Flawless, beautiful, moving, shocking and wildly compelling… I wish I could read it all over again' Lisa Jewell

When Victoria escapes her broken home for university in London, she is determined to reinvent herself and make a fresh start. She falls in love with Nick, who welcomes her into his privileged circle of friends, opening her eyes to a world she only ever dreamt of.

Then life takes a darker turn.

Twenty-five years later, the circle is reunited alongside a host of glittering guests to celebrate the wedding of Hollywood darling Ingrid Olsson to ruthlessly well-connected Julian Draper. Victoria has spent years trying to forget Nick and put the horror of what happened behind her. Now she has to face the past she tried so hard to bury.

As the champagne flows and painful memories resurface, Victoria can’t shake the feeling that some people seem to get away with everything.

But maybe not this time.

Maybe this time, someone will pay the ultimate price.

very well told

Really good story and excellent narration. She really nailed the obnoxious voices of the posh characters.

Atmospheric thriller

A slow-burn story of university friends and loves with all the yearning intensity of ‘Saltburn.’ Loved it.

Character and narrative woven into a golden finish

Coming of age and outsider angst with unrequited love viewed in retrospect and its affect on the dramatic present is captivating and stirring.

Gripping drama

This book is so well suited to audiobook. The writing is exceptional and the narration really brings it to life. I felt invested in the characters from the start. I felt utterly bereft when I got to the end. Could not recommend enough.
