The Villa

What to expect

Brought to you by Penguin.

Three years ago, bride-to-be Aoife died at her own hen party.

Now the hens have returned to the villa where that terrible weekend unfolded.

They long for closure. But the moment they step back inside, old wounds open and tensions begin to rise.

Everyone has a different version of what happened that night.

Who is keeping secrets?

And how far will they go to keep them hidden?

Critics Review

Jess Ryder is a master plotter. In The Villa, she gives us a compulsive thriller with claws. The trials and tensions of a girls’ holiday – the sense of abandon, the vying for status, the unspoken friction – is captured in all its prickly glory. With shades of Big Little Lies and The Hunting Party, it’s the perfect holiday read.
