This trip was meant to save our marriage. Instead it will destroy everything...
To celebrate my special birthday, my husband and I have returned to the beautiful Greek island village where we spent our honeymoon. As the boat pulls in to the harbour, I feel hope rise in my heart. The white houses, the blue doors, the brilliant turquoise of the sea, are just as I remember. If two weeks in this paradise won't fix our marriage, nothing will.
But then the next day a boat arrives, full of my friends and family. My grown-up children jump on to the shore, grinning and holding balloons. My husband beams at me and says, "Surprise!"
I can't believe it. It was meant to be just the two of us. This was my chance to confess what I've been hiding for years, the truth that will change everything.
Now I'm surrounded by all the people I've been desperate to escape, all the secrets I've been pretending I don't know. I force a smile on to my face, but inside I want to kill my husband.
But even after my party ended in disaster, I didn't expect anyone to die...
A completely gripping psychological thriller about the darkness at the heart of a family and how far a mother will go to protect her children that will keep you glued to the pages as you discover twist after twist. Fans of Lisa Jewell, Ruth Ware and Lucy Clarke will love The Surprise Party.
