The Beach meets Point Break in the exhilarating new thriller, with a heart-stopping twist, by the bestselling author of Shiver. There's a darkness inside all of us and The Bay has a way of bringing it out. Everyone here has their secrets, but we don't go looking for them. Because sometimes it's better not to know. Kenna arrives in Sydney to surprise her best friend. But Mikki and her fiancΓ© Jack are about to head away on a trip, so Kenna finds herself tagging along for the ride. Sorrow Bay is beautiful, wild, and dangerous. A remote surfing spot with waves to die for, cut off from the rest of the world. Here Kenna meets a mysterious group of people who will do anything to keep their paradise a secret. Sky, Ryan, Clemente and Victor have come to disappear from life. But what did they leave behind? As Kenna gets drawn into their world, she sees the extremes they are prepared to go to for the next thrill. And everyone seems to be hiding something. What is her best friend involved in and can she get her away? Because one thing is becoming rapidly clear about The Bay: nobody ever leaves. 'Fast-paced, nail-bitingly tense, packed full of twists and turns, I found it unputdownable - loved it' SARAH PEARSE 'A compulsive page-turner. The hidden motives of this surf-worshipping cultish group of friends, who would do anything necessary to protect their hidden beach from the outside world, maintained a taut suspense that truly had me until the very last page.' SALLY THORNE '[A] mesmerising psychological thriller... Clever, compulsive and terrifying ... This fast-paced locked room mystery is utterly intoxicating and frighteningly anchored in reality' POPPY GEE 'An exhilarating, adrenaline-filled tale' Kirkus 'Filled with edge of your seat suspense, flawed yet enthralling characters and an atmospheric setting, The Bay is everything you want a psychological thriller to be . . . Will keep you up all night' Good Reading 'A sexy and scary brew that had me turning the pages late in the night as the twisted plot unfolded at breakneck speed' LORAINE PECK 'An absolute masterclass in tension; dripping from every page as the fear ramps up and the questions as to what is really going on build. The setting and characters are magnificent - serious The Beach vibes but more murder!' SARAH BONNER 'Will leave you wanting to devour the entire thing in one sitting' Woman's Day 'An exhilarating psychological thriller set in our own backyard' The New Daily 'Expect big twists, devastating secrets and pure thrills' Lifehacker Australia
