Get them before they get you..

The hotly-anticipated tie-in to the 2023 National Television Awards winning hit TV series

Test your wits with the ultimate game of cunning, logic and intuition

'This book is brilliant' Zoe Ball, BBC Radio 2

It's time to start your adventure. Get them before they get you

Put your sleuthing skills to the test in a world of deception, betrayal, and strategy. Placed in a castle in the Scottish Highlands, you must figure out if your fellow players are Faithful or a Traitor. Can you trust Jorge, the dentist with an encyclopaedic memory and tendency to smile at everyone? Or Nina, the retiree who acts like the group's matriarch but has a knowing glint in her eyes..? Beware, for in this treacherous game, trust is a luxury you cannot afford.

In the official book of the BAFTA-winning phenomenon, The Traitors- The Interactive Game Book, the decisions you make will decide what happens next. Take this thrilling journey on your own or with others, pooling your wisdom to make the right choices. With over 20 standalone games to play in a group - all with cunning Traitors twists - this is the perfect gift, guaranteed to unleash hours of mischief and fun.

Reviews for The Traitors: The Ultimate Game of Cunning, Logic and Intuition

This book is brilliant * Zoe Ball, BBC Radio 2 * One of the hottest realities right now, The Traitors is an absolute phenomenon you can enjoy also in a book * Digital Spy * Plenty of intrigue in this immersive experience * Lancashire Live * The Traitors: Interactive Game Book is something of a unique proposition. A bit like a Choose Your Own Adventure book, it allows you to make choices that may or may not lead to victory in a fictionalised version of The Traitors. There are also little missions included that you can play alone or with other real-life people. * Radio Times * Ever since the show aired, Traitors fans have been asking how they can be part of the wonderful world of the show . . . The book is full of all the mystery, suspense and fun of the show. * Amanda Lovett (Season 1 contestant, BBC The Traitors UK) *
