The moment she sees Caitlyn, wearing her 'bride-to-be' sash and brimming with excitement, it hits her. She hates Caitlyn. She knows who Little Miss Perfect really is - what she's really hiding. And the temptation to do something about it is too strong to resist...
When the first bottle of prosecco pops open I breathe a sigh of relief. As maid-of-honour, I've worked so hard to organise my best friend Caitlyn's big celebration before her wedding. Even though her schoolfriends are jealous they aren't bridesmaids like me, and her sisters won't make eye contact, I plaster a fake smile on my face and top up everyone's glasses. Nothing will spoil this special weekend.
But as we begin the cute husband-and-wife games, Caitlyn's sister-in-law reveals something shockingly cruel. In the silence that follows, the little question cards I'd made drop, forgotten, to the floor. We're supposed to be celebrating her upcoming wedding but Caitlyn's lied to me for years. Her relationship is far from the magical dream she'd made it out to be.
Suddenly, everyone in the room is arguing. All of our secrets and lies are exposed. It's clear that none of us really know each other - or Caitlyn.
The next morning I find Caitlyn, beautiful, pale and unmoving in her bed. The bride is dead. One of us killed her. But which devastating truth was dangerous enough to kill for? And with us all stuck here until the murderer is found, how long will it be until someone else gets hurt...?
Perfect for fans of The Perfect Marriage, Lucinda Berry, and Freida McFadden, this is an utterly compelling and shocking psychological thriller with amazingly unexpected twists. This book was originally published as The Hen Party.
