2024: Keep your friends close and your enemies closer . . .
Nate and Layla, Jude and Sophie. They’ve been a four for as long as they can remember: fancy dinners, dancing ’til dawn . . . Even living and working together.
So when Nate and Layla suddenly quit their lives and move to Bali, with its white sands and exotic beach clubs, Jude and Sophie are their first visitors. Anything to escape their life in London.
But as the two couples reunite, cracks begin to show.
Which is hardly surprising; they’ve been lying to each other for years.
And now, it’s time for revenge.
Bali
There are a lot of descriptions of paradise compared to where they are all from – London.
“He glances out of the window at the cerulean sky and blazing sunshine and has a flashback to being squashed onto a packed tube train..”
Kuta
‘Kuta is basically the Balinese equivalent of Magaluf’ Nate says. ‘A load of drunk tourists have turned the place into a party resort and now it’s a bit of a shithole.’
Canggu
Where the couple live and where you get to see in quite some detail. It sounds amazing! Beaches, nature, clean air…..
Kuburan Terunyan
One of the most amazing sounding places in the novel – a lakeside cemetery only accessible by boat.
Oh my word! I’ll have a quiet morning having a bit of a holiday in Bali I thought. Nope – a few hours later, I am in a dark room lying down wondering how many twists were actually in that book, how many secrets I have discovered and how many OMG moments there were.
What a read! Hey, Bali is lovely and Echo Beach sounds wonderful. I would even love to go climbing up Mount Batur like they do in the book but….I would never go in a couple and certainly not a foursome if this book is anything to go by.
Great characters with secrets galore. Who would have thought? …… No it wasn’t…who did that? What a mind game! Loved it!
Nikki writes some top top destination thrillers but this is my favourite I think so far. More please!
