About this listen
From the author of Tell Us No Secrets comes a twisty new novel. A young American woman is thrust into the closed social circle of English aristocrats, but beneath their charm and glamor lay secrets and dark betrayals that follow them—and her—around every corner. Perfect for fans of Lucy Foley, Sherry Lapena, Ruth Ware, and Gilly MacMillan.
To everyone else it was “just” a weekend house party—complete with a pheasant shoot, inside jokes, and after-dinner games. But for American Nicola Harris, swept off her feet by aristocratic Englishman James Shuttleworth, the weekend is her first chance to penetrate his close-knit circle of posh friends—people with names like Badger and Trez, people who will soon have the titles of Earl and Countess. Nicola is eager to fit in, but she can’t seem to navigate this insular world, where everyone speaks a private language and secrets are hinted at behind the jolly jokes and witty barbs.
Just as Nicola begins to feel welcome, Juliet arrives. Mysterious, stunning, charismatic Juliet is also James’ first love—the one who left him heartbroken ten years before. Juliet holds the men in thrall and the women under her spell. And although it seems she can do no wrong, outsider Nicola senses something poisonous in her presence, something that sparks insecurity, jealousy, betrayal, and violence. Because Juliet is a champion game-player, able to lure you into her circle by finding your most vulnerable spot....and when the game she plays turns deadly, everyone is a suspect.

Terrible!
Firstly, the female narrators' high pitched accent was the worst I have come across at Audible. Secondly, I don't know how this book could actually have been published. The 1st 15 chapters comprises mostly of the American girl asking the meaning of certain British words used - and then (internally) ridiculing the person/word/function. This theme runs throughout the entire book. Added to this the constant highlighting from the 'have-nots', towards the 'haves'. It is so simplistic, superficial and ridiculous. I had to listen to most of it so I could leave this review, but I will certainly be returning the book, and do not understand why anyone would recommend it.

I couldn't have guessed the ending
I had to read faster and faster to find out what happened! Full of suspense. At the beginning i wasn't sure i cared for many of the cast of well drawn rather unlikeable characters. But soon there were surprises on who was better or worse than they first appeared. I loved it!
