The One
Love Island meets Black Mirror in this nail-biting, high-concept thriller. The One has already topped bestseller lists worldwide and sold over one million copies. Now it's back in this special tenth anniversary edition, complete with an exclusive author letter and five never-seen-before bonus chapters revisiting all of the key characters ten years later.
HOW FAR WOULD YOU GO TO FIND THE ONE?
A simple DNA test is all it takes. Just a quick mouth swab and soon you'll be matched with your perfect partnerโthe one you're genetically made for.
That's the promise made by Match Your DNA. A decade ago, the company announced that they had found the gene that pairs each of us with our soul mate. Since then, millions of people around the world have been Matched. But the discovery has its downsidesโtest results have led to the breakup of countless previously secure relationships and shattered traditional ideas of dating, romance, and love.
Now five very different people have received the notification that they've been Matched. They're each about to meet their one true love. But 'happily ever after' isn't guaranteed for everyone. Because even soul mates have secrets. And some are more shocking than others...
This updated edition of The One comes complete with an exclusive letter from the author and five never-seen-before bonus chapters catching up with all the key characters ten years later.
