A Death At The Party

Description

Who put murder on the guest list? A page-turning, compelling thriller where secrets of past and present collide at the party of the year.

A Death At The Party is set on the day of Nadine Walsh's summer garden party, which she is determined to make the event of the year. Everyone deserves a celebration after the year they've had, a chance to forget and enjoy themselves.

As she prepares to welcome her guests, Nadine is distracted. Her husband offers little assistance, and her two grown children are consumed with their own concerns. Yet, it is Nadine's own secrets that threaten to destroy her perfect party.

By the end of the night, Nadine will be standing over a dead body in the basement. But which of her guests will she have murdered? And why?
