The Writing Retreat

<strong>'A five-star read that's intelligent, accomplished and exciting. I dare you to put it down.' Janice Hallett, author of <em>The Appeal</em></strong>

<strong>The dark, atmospheric, feminist offspring of <em>Squid Game</em>, </strong><em><strong>The Hunting Party </strong></em><strong>and </strong><em><strong>Misery</strong></em>

<em><strong>A book deal to die for. </strong></em>

Five attendees are selected for a month-long writing retreat at the remote estate of Roza Vallo, the controversial high priestess of feminist horror. Alex, a struggling writer, is thrilled.

Upon arrival, they discover they must complete an entire novel from scratch, and the best one will receive a seven-figure publishing deal. Alex's long-extinguished dream now seems within reach.

But then the women begin to die.

Trapped, terrified yet still desperately writing, it is clear there is more than a publishing deal at stake at Blackbriar Estate. Alex must confront her own demons - and finish her novel - to save herself.

<strong>This unhinged, propulsive, claustrophobic closed-door thriller will pull you in and spit you out... </strong>
