Who killed Harriet?
Complicated, driven, loving; manipulative, irresistible, monstrous –
whether you love her or hate her, Harriet is impossible to say no to.
But someone has finally snapped and as Harriet lies dying, she is
determined to figure out who has killed her.
Was it her devoted husband? Or was it her best friend and sometimes
lover?
Or Karen, a fellow school mum and seemingly the woman who has it all –
until the night Harriet persuaded her into playing Two Truths and a Lie?
Teenage bullies, complicated friendships, and games (both on and off
the playground) combine with envy, obsession and revenge to create a
twisty tale of drama and suspense that you won’t be able to put down.
The holidays are here. The extended family has gathered. The cars are packed and the convoy sets off. The cottage is a few hours' drive - but not everyone will live to see it...
For Jill, her three sons, their wives and children, a terrifying road crash will tear apart their family. The crash will be an accident but the shattering that follows has been long coming. Because at the heart of this family lies a secret - concealed, wrestled with, festering and harmful - and nothing now can stop it coming out.
But will any of them survive it?
Nicola Moriarty makes her US debut with this stunning page-turner
for fans of Jojo Moyes, Emily Griffin, Kate Morton, and Jessica
Knoll, about four best friends on a relaxing vacation that turns
devastating when old secrets are revealed, long-held grudges
surface, and a shattering betrayal is discovered that shakes the
foundation of their lives. Best friends from high school, Joni,
Deb, Eden, and Trina had always looked forward to the vacations
they spent together. But the demands of careers, husbands, and
babies gradually pulled them apart, and now their annual getaways
may be a thing of the past. Joni doesn't want to lose her friends,
and this year she's coaxed them all back together for some fun at a
beach house. Late on a laughter and wine-filled night, the women
dare one another to write anonymous letters, spilling her most
intimate thoughts like they did as teenagers. But the fun game
meant to bring them closer together turns painfully serious,
exposing cracks in their lives and their relationships. Each letter
is a confession revealing disturbing information. A rocky marriage.
A harrowing addiction. A hidden pregnancy. A heartbreaking
diagnosis. Days later, Joni notices something in the fireplace--a
crumpled and partially burned fifth letter that holds the most
shattering admission of all. Best friends are supposed to keep your
darkest secrets. But the revelations Joni, Deb, Eden and Trina have
shared will have unforeseen consequences . . . and none of them
will ever be the same.
Poppy never thought her husband wanted children - especially not
with her best friend. When Poppy arrives home to find her husband
and best friend sitting side by side at her kitchen table, she
thinks they're planning her a birthday surprise . . . Little does
she know, they're waiting to tell her about their affair. And
worse, that they're having a baby. Now everywhere she goes, mothers
are reminding her of their betrayal. So when Poppy meets a woman
who wants to help her fight back, it seems like a good idea. But
how well does she know her? Is she there to help . . . or does she
have an agenda of her own? What readers are saying: 'I stayed up
late reading this . . . it was brilliant' 'An evocative, exciting
story filled with a dark humour' 'Just as compelling and moreish as
I'd expected' 'I was hooked and raced through'
Four friends. Five Letters. One Secret. The scandalous breakthrough
novel from Nicola Moriarty that will leave you asking, how well do
I really know my friends? Joni, Trina, Deb and Eden. Best friends
since the first day of school. Best friends, they liked to say,
forever. But now they are in their thirties and real life -
husbands, children, work - has got in the way. So, resurrecting
their annual trip away, Joni has an idea, something to help them
reconnect. Each woman will write an anonymous letter, sharing with
their friends the things that are really going on in their lives.
But as the confessions come tumbling out, Joni starts to feel the
certainty of their decades-long friendships slip from her fingers.
Anger. Accusations. Desires. Deceit. And then she finds another
letter. One that was never supposed to be read. A fifth letter.
