The latest twisty psychological thriller from internationally-bestselling author Lucy Clarke, One of the Girls is the delicious story of a bachelorette trip on a stunning Greek island… that ends in murder.

Lucy Clarke has done it again! Without fail, she reels a reader in, wraps them around her chapters and spits them out at the end confused, bereft and utterly amazed by her writing talent. One of the Girls is in development to be on the big screen and this is one of those books that just HAS to play out visually. The setting, the characters, the secrets… Lucy writes beautifully and her books are always a treat. Seeing them come to life will be so spectacular.

It’s all the best bits of a beach read (sun, sea, romance…) with all the gripping bits of a psychological thriller (secrets, murder, tension). Genres collide with this book to create something almost by its own unique definition. The slow start is not a negative – it gives space for getting to know the setting and the characters ready for the big unravelling. You’ll be running on adrenalin by the last few pages!

About the Book…

It was supposed to be the perfect weekend away. Six very different women travel to a sun-soaked Greek island for a bachelorette trip, to celebrate Lexi’s upcoming wedding. From the glorious ocean views to the quaint tavernas and whitewashed streets, the vacation seems too good to be true. But dangerous undercurrents run beneath the sunset swims and midnight cocktails – because each of the women is hiding a secret. Someone is determined to make sure that Lexi’s marriage never happens – and that one of them doesn’t leave the island alive.

Gripping, twisty, and full of sun-soaked suspense, this timely thriller examines the joys of female friendship…as well as the deadly consequences when a relationship goes wrong.
