Super-clever, silky smooth and brilliantly wicked, The Club is a triumph and a treat - one of the most riveting books I've read in a long time. Five stars from me -- Louise Candlish, author of <i>Our House</i> Smart, topical and immensely entertaining - this members-only club is going to be VERY popular in 2022 -- T. M. Logan, author of <i>The Holiday</i> Loved it. A razor-sharp satire on the uber-elite that ramps up the revelations to a deeply satisfying reckoning -- Harriet Tyce Dark, clever, addictive and outrageously entertaining -- Charlotte Philby, author of <i>The Second Woman</i> A twisty, timely take on the classic murder mystery . . . Entertaining, compelling and just great fun - White Lotus and Succession fans will love it -- Holly Watt, author of <i>The Hunt and The Kill</i> A deliciously dark murder mystery and glimpse of the A-list life -- C. D. Major, author of <i>The Thin Place</i> This year's must-read thriller . . . Shut yourself in, mute your phone and devour this whole -- Celia Walden, author of <i>Payday</i> Another corker from Ellery Lloyd - great fun, keeps you guessing, fantastic insight into private members' clubs. Loved it -- Jane Fallon You'll need to keep your wits about you as you enter The Club . . . This had me second-guessing all the way through and I didn't come up for air until I got to the end -- Sandie Jones, author of <i>The Other Woman</i> Every bit as addictive as People Like Her, The Club has it all - celebrities, secrets, intrigue and razor-sharp observations -- <span>Charlotte Northedge, author of <i>The House Guest</i></span> A wholly addictive thriller, a clever blend of Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous and murder. A page-turner from start to finish -- <span>Samantha Downing, bestselling author of <i>My Lovely Wife</i> and <i>For Your Own Good</i></span> I was absolutely hooked. Packed with rich, delightful and despicable characters, it's Heat magazine as written by Agatha Christie -- John Marrs, author of <i>The One</i>
