The Christmas Guest
B P Walter
The holidays will be murder…
The table is set for a feast – wine glasses, fancy tableware, candles. Like every year, we have gathered at our father’s home on Liars Island for the holidays. It’s the only time we’re ever together as a family. As we eat and raise our glasses, we avoid each other’s eyes…
But this year someone new has been invited. Someone we haven’t seen for years. Someone who keeps asking questions about that terrible Christmas six years ago, when our mother died.
Does our Christmas guest know more than he’s saying? Why is he here, and will we be able to keep our secrets safe?
But as the storm rises, cutting us off from the mainland, we’re forced to ask what we should really be frightened of. The stranger in our home? Or each other…?
A brilliantly twisty thriller from the bestselling author of The Dinner Guest. Perfect for fans of Lisa Jewell, Maria Frankland and A.K. Benedict.
