The new pulse-pounding and unputdownable thriller from the author of the number one bestseller THE COUPLE NEXT DOOR, and A STRANGER IN THE HOUSE.   'Tense. Unpredictable. Unputdownable. Shari Lapena's novels are domestic noir at its finest' Simon Kernick  **********  We can’t choose the strangers we meet.  As the guests arrive at beautiful, remote Mitchell’s Inn, they’re all looking forward to a relaxing weekend deep in the forest, miles from anywhere. They watch their fellow guests with interest, from a polite distance.   Usually we can avoid the people who make us nervous, make us afraid.  With a violent storm raging, the group finds itself completely cut off from the outside world. Nobody can get in – or out. And then the first body is found . . . and the horrifying truth comes to light. There’s a killer among them – and nowhere to run.   Until we find ourselves in a situation we can’t escape. Trapped.  **********  ‘If you want an unputdownable thriller, you’re in luck – best-seller Shari Lapena is back with a new whodunnit . . . Crafted like a vintage Christie and just as tense, this will be a smash hit’ Heat  '[An Unwanted Guest] once again shows her gift for smart characterisation combined with a subtle appreciation for the darkness of the human heart . . . A perfectly choreographed danse macabre' Mail on Sunday  ‘Shari Lapena combines the cosy feel and cunning plotting of an Agatha Christie-era whodunnit with a sharp eye for contemporary life and she is rapidly becoming a go-to author for anyone seeking a light but lip-smacking mystery’  Sunday Express  ‘The psychological thrillers of Lapena are masterclasses in tightly plotted, economical narrative…This third novel has a premise straight out of a Agatha Christie classic’ Metro  'An excellent mystery! Agatha Christie meets P D James' Ragnar Jonasson  Readers love Shari Lapena:  ‘Best book I’ve read in ages’  ‘5* fast paced, twisting thriller’  ‘The pace never let up’  ‘On the edge of my seat to the end’  ‘I haven’t picked up a book in 9 years and I’m so glad that I picked this up! I loved it.’  ‘Incredibly readable and unputdownable’  ‘Very clever, well written, intriguing and suspenseful’  ‘Had me hooked from start to finish’","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49518479507729,"sku":"GOR009199565","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49555262112017,"sku":"GOR009201632","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49560407277841,"sku":"GOR009275062","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ WELL_READ \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49659387805969,"sku":"GOR009369976","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0593079647.jpg?v=1750783751","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/products\/unwanted-guest-book-shari-lapena-9780593079645","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
