Résumé

THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER. The new pulse-pounding and unputdownable thriller from the author of the number one bestseller THE COUPLE NEXT DOOR, and A STRANGER IN THE HOUSE. ''Tense . Unpredictable . Unputdownable . Shari Lapena''s novels are domestic noir at its finest'' Simon Kernick ********** We can''t choose the strangers we meet. As the guests arrive at beautiful, remote Mitchell''s Inn, they''re all looking forward to a relaxing weekend deep in the forest, miles from anywhere. They watch their fellow guests with interest, from a polite distance. Usually we can avoid the people who make us nervous, make us afraid. With a violent storm raging, the group finds itself completely cut off from the outside world. Nobody can get in - or out. And then the first body is found . . . and the horrifying truth comes to light. There''s a killer among them - and nowhere to run. Until we find ourselves in a situation we can''t escape. Trapped. ********** ''If you want an unputdownable thriller, you''re in luck - best-seller Shari Lapena is back with a new whodunnit . . . Crafted like a vintage Christie and just as tense, this will be a smash hit'' Heat ''[An Unwanted Guest] once again shows her gift for smart characterisation combined with a subtle appreciation for the darkness of the human heart . . . A perfectly choreographed danse macabre'' Mail on Sunday ''Shari Lapena combines the cosy feel and cunning plotting of an Agatha Christie-era whodunnit with a sharp eye for contemporary life and she is rapidly becoming a go-to author for anyone seeking a light but lip-smacking mystery'' Sunday Express ''The psychological thrillers of Lapena are masterclasses in tightly plotted, economical narrative...This third novel has a premise straight out of a Agatha Christie classic'' Metro ''An excellent mystery! Agatha Christie meets P D James'' Ragnar Jonasson Readers love Shari Lapena: '' Best book I''ve read in ages'' ''5* fast paced, twisting thriller'' ''The pace never let up'' ''On the edge of my seat to the end'' ''I haven''t picked up a book in 9 years and I''m so glad that I picked this up! I loved it.'' ''Incredibly readable and unputdownable '' ''Very clever, well written, intriguing and suspenseful'' ''Had me hooked from start to finish''
