'If rich terrible people behaving appallingly is your jam then The Club is the book for you!' - Marian Keyes

There's no place like Home . . .

The Home Group is a collection of ultra-exclusive private members' clubs and a global phenomenon, and the opening of its most ambitious project yet - Island Home, a forgotten island transformed into the height of luxury - is billed as the celebrity event of the decade.

But as the first guests arrive, the weekend soon proves deadly - because it turns out that even the most beautiful people can keep the ugliest secrets and, in a world where reputation is everything, they'll do anything to keep it.

If your name's on the list, you're not getting out . . .

For fans of The White Lotus and Big Little Lies, Ellery Lloyd's The Club is an exhilarating, addictive read, telling a story of ambition, excess, and what happens when people who have everything - or nothing - to lose are pushed to their imit.

'One of the most riveting books I've read in a long time' - Louise Candlish, author of Our House

'Smart, topical and immensely entertaining' - T.M. Logan, author of The Holiday

'Glitzy and twisty and tons of fun' - Observer

Rezensionen

If rich terrible people behaving appallingly is your jam then The Club is the book for you! It also has murders and intrigue but all I cared about was seeing the RTP getting their comeuppance! Marian Keyes, author of Again, Rachel

"A smart, stylish and savage thriller that goes straight for the jugular." - People (Book of the Week)

"Masterly thriller . . . Lloyd (husband-and-wife writing team Collette Lyons and Paul Vlitos) makes the reader care about even unappealing characters, and the payoff is completely satisfying. Fans of Ruth Ware's One by One will be riveted." - Publishers Weekly (starred review)

"The Club is something very different: a super-glamorous locked-room (locked island, really) murder mystery. . . . Glitzy and twisty, it's tons of fun." - The Guardian

"A satisfying and multifaceted thriller. As in Lucy Foley's smash The

Guest List, readers see the plot unfold from multiple angles while the characters' dirty secrets are revealed. A perfect suggestion for lovers of locked-room and island mysteries." - Booklist

"Deliciously sinister." - Popsugar

"The Club is a clever murder mystery that provides thrills and gasps galore, as well as a pointed and clear-eyed cautionary tale about the downsides of money and fame." - BookPage

"Utterly riveting . . . Perfect for readers of twisty novels and star-studded casts, The Club is a glitzy, glamorous thriller with a dark and deadly mystery at its heart. If you're ready for an escape from domestic suspense, plan your next trip to Island Home." - Bookreporter

"A shamelessly juicy read about murder and the dirty secrets of the rich, beautiful, and famous." - Daily Mail (London)

"Written with ruthless detail, The Club is a startling dissection of celebrity culture, masterfully told." - Eliza Jane Brazier, author of If I Disappear

"Loved it. A razor-sharp satire on the uber-elite that ramps up the revelations to a deeply satisfying reckoning as justice is served on the many splendidly unlikeable characters. . . . A fantastic read." - Harriet Tyce, author of Blood Orange and The Lies You Told

"Super clever, silky smooth, and brilliantly wicked, The Club is a triumph and a treat-one of the most riveting books I've read in a long time." - Louise Candlish, author of The Other Passenger

"You'll need to keep your wits about you as you enter The Club. Shady business practices, moral dilemmas and a cast of characters who all have something to hide . . . but which one will kill to keep their secrets? This had me second-guessing all the way through and I didn't come up for air until I got to the end. A triumph!" - Sandie Jones, author of The Other Woman and The Guilt Trip

"The Club is a wholly addictive thriller, a clever blend of Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous and murder. A page turner from start to finish." - Samantha Downing, author of My Lovely Wife and For Your Own Good
