‘Deliciously dark and utterly addictive - my favourite Ruth Ware yet’ Lucy Foley

Everyone wanted her life Someone wanted her dead

It was Hannah who found April’s body ten years ago. It was Hannah who didn’t question what she saw that day. Did her testimony put an innocent man in prison?

She needs to know the truth.

Even if it means questioning her own friends. Even if it means putting her own life at risk.

Because if the killer wasn’t a stranger, it’s someone she knows…

Praise for The It Girl:

‘A cracking read - and that ending!’ Shari Lapena

‘Every Ruth Ware novel is a unique and unexpected gem and this one is no exception. A heady, tense, slowburn dream of a book, multi-layered and steeped in atmosphere and peril. I loved every page’ Lisa Jewell

‘If you ever idly wish that Agatha Christie would write a new book, Ruth Ware has got you covered. The It Girl has all the clues, twists and red herrings you could wish for, in a thoroughly modern setting. An impeccably constructed mystery from start to finish’ Jane Casey

‘It’s brilliant. Ruth is the master of the fiendishly twisty, yet completely believable, plot’ Elly Griffiths

‘Just finished The It Girl by Ruth Ware and now my life is divided in two: before and after. Before: cool, calm, chilled. After: What? No! OMG! A wild ride that’s deliciously twisting, with countless gasp-out-loud moments’ Janice Hallett

‘A new Ruth Ware is always a treat and The It Girl is one of her best. You can almost see her smiling as she feeds you the little morsels that should help you work everything out - if only you were as clever as Ruth! As sleek and chilling as a knife between the ribs’ Sarah J. Naughton

‘Clever. Compelling and with a terrific sense of place. Ruth Ware’s The It Girl grips to the end’ Jane Shemilt
