The Group by Sigge Eklund

A SEARING HOT SUMMER READ FOR FANS OF SALTBURN AND THE TALENTED MR RIPLEY. 'Addictive, evocative and effortlessly stylish' Culturefly | 'Very much for fans of The Secret History . . . glamorous' Pandora Sykes | 'A cool smart choice for the beach this summer' Daily Mail When Hanna moves to Spain for an internship at the prestigious Prado gallery, she finds herself spending her days buried in the museum's stifling archives, and her nights alone in a tiny rented flat. Then one day she sees them; Tom, Samuel, and Leah. Glamorous and elegant, they are also foreigners in the city. But unlike her they are fabulously wealthy, their lives an endless whirl of creativity and hedonism. And when Hanna discovers an uncatalogued 17th century etching in the archive, she makes a decision which changes everything . . . Taking us from the sultry streets of Madrid to the gleaming world of Mediterranean luxury villas and exclusive art world parties, The Group is a timeless story of hidden identity and obsession. (Translated by Rachel Willson-Broyles).

'Evokes Patricia Highsmith's antihero Tom Ripley ... Just like Ripley, Hanna ingratiates herself into a circle of wealthy acquaintances, and just like Ripley, she is always on the verge of being exposed as a fraud. There are also similarities with Donna Tartt's The Secret History ... magnificent entertainment' * Geffle Dagblad *
