About

'A White Lotus-style frenemy implosion thriller... but with Brit girls from the nineties' CAROLINE CORCORAN

At school, Darcy Starr was the girl everyone wanted to be - effortlessly beautiful, confident and most importantly, popular.

Two decades later, she still appears to have the perfect life: a devoted husband, a beautiful daughter and a picture-perfect suburban home, until her old school friend Alex Rigby reappears. Newly divorced, post-glow-up and harbouring a mysterious vendetta, Alex is about to turn Darcy's world upside down.

On a group holiday to celebrate a friend's wedding, secrets, lies and old rivalries bubble to the surface, threatening to change everything Darcy thought she knew about her past. . . and herself.

'A promising debut from a talented new writer' CATHY KELLY Emma Robertson (Author)

Emma Robertson grew up in Aldershot, Hampshire and has lived in London for the last 20 years. She and her husband like to travel as much as possible, with a particular interest in no-fly travel. Emma teaches dance choreography, which gives her a fascinating insight into relationships as she works with couples in the lead up to their big day. She is endlessly nostalgic about the 1990s, which was a big inspiration for her debut novel, A Girl's Girl.

Darcy has everything she's ever wanted... her friend wants to take it all away. DESTINATION THRILLER: escape to stunning beaches and poolside bars in Lapad Croatia, the backdrop for a dream holiday that turns into a nightmare. MILLENNIAL NOSTALGIA: set partly in the late 90s, this is full of nostalgic period details that women in their 30s and 40s will recognise. WOMEN'S FICTION WITH BITE: will appeal to fans of Holly Bourne with recognisable and relatable characters and experiences as well as exploration of themes around girlhood, adolescence, nostalgia, cliques, and bullying.
