The "perfect poolside reading" (The Guardian UK) is a Highsmithian tale of a couple of gorgeous grifters set loose in the south of France, where they take advantage of pretty much everyone they meet - including each other.The heat is intense. The secrets are stifling.
In a tiny village in Provence, nine guests arrive at a luxury holiday home.
They all know each other well, or at least they think they do.
The only stranger is Lulu, the young woman hired to do the catering. Little does anyone know, though, Lulu is not EXACTLY the woman they hired (by video) - she just looks and sounds a whole lot like her. But Lulu is not Lulu: she's actually a con artist named Ali, on the run from her boyfriend, who might just be a better actor than she.
And what happened to the real Lulu? Only time will tell, but not before damage is done.
Dripping in intrigue, this is a glamorous, witty and totally engaging story of secrets, lies and...more lies.

Pressezitat
"A merciless portrayal of privileged English abroad leavens a tense and fiendish thriller. Yikes!" - Saga Magazine"Sabine Durrant finely evokes Riviera beaches and provincial France, and gives us a character who grows more sympathetic as we admire the ingenuity with which she overcomes her perils. The climax is sheer genius . . . Ideal for a sun lounger at home or abroad." - Audiobook of the Week, The Times
"Claustrophobic and suspenseful, with an engaging narrator and a satisfying twist: perfect poolside reading." - The Guardian UK
"The premise is so interesting and the characters so divisive that you'll want to keep reading." - Belfast Telegraph
"A sizzling thriller." - Bella Magazine
"Escapist." - HELLO Magazine
"Essential holiday reading material." - Closer Magazine
"Durrant is relentless with the suspense, presenting Ali's unreliable narrator status beautifully. . . It's superbly controlled, a novel that's obsidian dark under the blazing French sun." - Irish Independent
