The French Girl cover

It was meant to be the perfect holiday for six British gradates. But then she arrived, lithe and tanned, by the pool one hot afternoon. Severine - the girl next door. As her beauty captivates each of them, tensions begin to boil over, and years of jealousy and longing rise to the surface. And then she disappears.

A decade later, Severine's body is found. For Kate Channing, the discovery brings up more than just unwelcome memories. As the layers of deception reveal themselves and police suspicion mounts, Kate must ask if she really wants to know what happened to the French girl...

A maelstrom of complicated friendships and shifting alliances. This addictive debut will keep you up late into the night! * Karen Dionne, author of The Marsh King's Daughter *
A gripping mystery that delves into the past and the darker side of friendships, this book will have you questioning everything you think you know.

I was completely captivated from beginning to end. * Megan Miranda, New York Times bestselling author of The Perfect Stranger *
You'll be well-served to carve out a lofty chunk of time for this tangled mystery, as The French Girl demands a one-sit read. * Mail Online *
