A new heart-stopping thriller from the author of The Wild Girls in which two couples go on vacation and murder ensues.
How well do you know your friends?
Four friends are on the vacation of a lifetime in Thailand. Until a vicious murder shatters their paradise.
Four friends who would do anything for each other—until now.
Only one of them committed a crime.
But all four know how to keep a secret.
And they’re all guilty of something…
A trip to Thailand seems like a dream vacation for two couples until unusual things start happening.
Author Phoebe Morgan takes readers from cold London to the sunny streets of Thailand. Told in alternating viewpoints, The Trip explores the limits of friendship.
Theo and Saskia are still reveling in the newness of their marriage. They are well-to-do, used to all the trappings that come with money. Lucas and his long-term girlfriend, Holly, live a much more frugal lifestyle. Despite their differences, the friendship between the men expands to include their partners.
A getaway to Thailand might theoretically sound like a phenomenal trip, but the author drops various clues warning of things to come. The scene featuring the lost passports was incredibly unnerving. It soon becomes apparent that in spite of the close relationships among the four, secrets are about to come to light.
The author adds a delightful twist to the ending that serves up a measure of justice. The characters are well-developed, allowing readers to see events through different perspectives.
The Trip sends readers on a suspenseful journey as four friends discover how far friendship can be tested before it breaks.
