The Goldens

Beschreibung

"Chloe has always dreamed of becoming a bestselling writer. Then she meets Clara Holland, a prominent influencer, socialite, and model. Clara is enigmatic, dazzling, gorgeous. And at last, ordinary Chloe has something to write about. Bonding instantly, Chloe moves into Clara's grand family estate. They spend long afternoons together, writing Clara's memoir, polishing social media posts, and planning sumptuous, decadent parties: fairy lights in the orangery, themed cocktails, sequined backdrops, roaring bonfires. But as Clara opens her home to more girls who want to live like her and inspire one another, the media calls them a cult. As life becomes more claustrophobic, Chloe begins to hear unsettling rumors about Clara"--

Rezensionen

'One of the best debuts I've ever read - The Goldens is the influencer-starts-a-murder-cult story I never knew I needed. Dark, seductive and ruthlessly compelling, this is a cuttingly deep exploration of tender girlhood and toxic obsession ... but I would still follow Clara Holland to the ends of the earth. Nobody is ready for this book' Laura Steven, author of Our Infinite Fates

'The Goldens is a thoroughly insidious thriller, set in a glittering, decadent world that will lure you in just as surely as the cast's characters fall to the influence of their intoxicating, charismatic leader' Bea Fitzgerald, author of Girl, Goddess, Queen

'With creeping dread

building to a nerve-shredding finale, The Goldens is sprinkled with the glamorous, the glittering and the gothic' H. F. Askwith, author of A Dark Inheritance

'Deliciously dark and incredibly cool ... An unputdownable novel' The Bookseller

'A hedonistic exploration of when fascination becomes obsession, The Goldens is a deftly plotted tale of toxic friendships, wild revelry and the tipping point of social-media darling to cult leader. If Serena van der Woodsen had the personality of Rebecca de Winter and decided to start a teen cult, The Goldens would be the result' Rachel Greenlaw, author of Compass and Blade

'An unputdownable book fuelled by ride or die, toxic friendships and an irresistibly coquettish cult led by a social media influencer. The Goldens is feverish, sultry and tense - trust me, it's unlike anything you've ever read' Lucy Rose, author of The Lamb

'Lauren Wilson has delivered a sparkling debut - hidden inside this glittery party favour is a razor blade' Hayley Scrivenor, author of Dirt Town

'A seductive tale of effervescent glamor, toxic friendship and the fragile line between devotion and worship - irresistible' Kate Alice Marshall, author of Rules for Vanishing

'An outrageously good thriller' The Sun
