Description
'When The Traitors becomes a book club! These book club mamas are true-crime aficionados... This one keeps you turning the pages to find out what diabolical depths this foursome dives into!' NetGalley review, 4 stars
The first rule of Murder Club? Don't trust the other wives.
Marta and her true-crime book club escape to remote Snakebite Island for a long weekend of rosé, late-night confessions, and obsessive discussions about serial killers. No husbands. No responsibilities. Just four friends and a shared love of dark stories.
Until one of them turns up dead on the shore. Murdered.
They should call the police. But they can't. An investigation would expose everything the group has been hiding - including a husband who has mysteriously vanished.
Instead, they stage the perfect disappearance. After all, they know how these stories work. They've read hundreds of them.
But real life isn't a podcast or a paperback thriller. And the deeper Marta gets into the cover-up, the more she realises one terrifying truth: someone on Snakebite Island is a killer. And they're willing to do it again.
Perfect for fans of Frieda McFadden, Valerie Keogh and Becca Day.
