The resort of their dreams. A destination to die for... WELCOME TO
PARADISE! Or so the staff say when they greet the Hamiltons at the
idyllic Asana Fushi resort in the Maldives. And it starts off that
way: champagne picnics on powder-white sand, snorkelling in the
serene blue sea and moonlit walks under the stars. But lies lurk
beneath the luxury because each of the guests has a secret, and
they're not the only ones. How can a once-in-a-lifetime trip turn
into the holiday from hell? From the author of THE BEACH PARTY
comes a novel of sun, sea and secrets for fans of ONE OF THE GIRLS
and WHITE LOTUS.
'Bound to be the hit thriller of the summer!' T. M. Logan, The
Holiday ----- Six friends. The holiday of their dreams. One night
that changed it all . . . 1989: The tunes are loud and the clothes
are louder when a group of friends arrives in Mallorca for a
post-graduation holiday of decadence and debauchery at a luxury
villa. A beach party marks the pinnacle of their fun, until it
isn't fun any longer. Because amidst the wild partying - sand
flying from dancing feet and revellers leaping from yachts - an
accident happens. Suddenly, the night of a lifetime becomes a
living nightmare. Now: The truth about that summer has been
collectively buried. But someone knows what happened that night.
And they want the friends to pay for what they did. -----
'Thrilling, twisting and gloriously '80s' Chris Whitaker, We Begin
at the End 'Sun-soaked and fast-paced, the perfect holiday page
turner' Ellery Lloyd, The Club 'Deliciously gripping and twisty'
Shalini Boland, The Secret Mother 'Sizzling with suspense, the
perfect summer read' B. A. Paris, Behind Closed Doors

across Stage 7, by responding to reading and writing questions on

are included throughout to show students how to improve, while
self-assessment tasks at the end of each chapter help students to
reflect on their progress. Rich, varied and engaging text extracts

of the curriculum. Extracts of increasing length and challenge have
