Fantastic Thrillers with Clare Mackintosh and Ruth Ware

About Fantastic Thrillers with Clare Mackintosh and Ruth Ware

Both focus on the deaths of seemingly popular, successful people, and the range of suspects is terrifyingly wide!

They'll be in discussion about writing murder and mayhem, series versus standalone, and much more, in what promises to be an incredible conversation between two powerhouse talents of modern crime writing!

The Last Party by Clare Mackintosh
On New Year's Eve, Rhys Lloyd has a house full of guests.

His lakeside holiday homes are a success, and he's generously invited the village to drink champagne with their wealthy new neighbours. This will be the party to end all parties.

But not everyone is there to celebrate. By midnight, Rhys will be floating dead in the freezing waters of the lake.

On New Year's Day, DC Ffion Morgan has a village full of suspects.

The tiny community is her home, so the suspects are her neighbours, friends and family - and Ffion has her own secrets to protect.

With a lie uncovered at every turn, soon the question isn't who wanted Rhys dead... but who finally killed him.

In a village with this many secrets, a murder is just the beginning.

The It Girl by Ruth Ware
We've all known someone like her. Effortlessly popular and self-assured. Everything comes easy to them. They want for nothing. But not everything is always as it seems. And not everyone is a fan.

Loved by some. Hated by others... someone has murder in mind for this it girl.

To Hannah, April had it all. Confidence, money, brains, friends, good looks. She was someone shy Hannah aspired to be. Pushed together as roommates, soon they became best friends and Hannah is swept away in a lifestyle she'd only ever dreamed of.

But someone didn't like popular April. Someone hated her - hated her enough to kill her.

Ten years later, Hannah has tried to move on with her life. Happily married and expecting her first child, what Hannah doesn't need is someone digging up the past. Especially when the man her testimony convicted of April's murder has just died.

But will re-opening the past help Hannah finally put April to rest - or will it reveal secrets that should have died with her?
