'Accomplished, dark and stylish: I will read anything B P Walter writes’ Gillian McAllister

‘A fantastically dark and twisted thriller’ Nikki Smith

'B P Walter’s characterisation is terrifyingly good in this claustrophobic thriller’ Marion Todd

A brand new toxic family thriller to keep you gripped in summer 2025. Perfect for fans of The White Lotus, Lisa Jewell and Ruth Ware.

A summer holiday. A family secret. A split-second decision that will change everything.

Twenty years ago, a summer holiday ended in tragedy for the Palmer family.

No one has spoken of it since.

Until a new tv series plays out the horrifying events of that night.

As the family are forced to relive that fateful trip, is it possible that each person is hiding their own secrets, and is someone willing to do whatever it takes to keep their past firmly in the past...

Every 'jaw-dropping twist' is like, duh! I skimmed this book. I found the premise unbelievable and it made my skin crawl. Hard to believe he wrote The Locked Attic, which is excellent
