Description

Patricia Highsmith meets E. Lockhart in Out Of Her Depth - a simmering summer thriller about the choices you make as a teenager, and what happens when they go horribly wrong. 'This book is, quite simply, sublime'- Lesley Kara, author of The Rumour There are summers that could change your life. There are summers that could end it. Meet Rachel. An unassuming young woman from a quiet London suburb. Picture the scene: A summer job at the beautiful Villa Medici in the Tuscan hills. A group of glamorous teenagers, used to a life of privilege. Lavish parties, heady sun-soaked days, backstabbing and bedhopping. Until someone goes too far. And nothing will ever be the same. Readers love Lizzy Barber's Out Of Her Depth: 'Really believable characters, a great plot, a wonderful setting . . . felt like I was in Italy soaking up the sun' ***** 'A tantalisingly written suspense . . . and a premise that delivers. Delicious.' ***** 'A classic take on the unreliable narrator, a terrific page turner with themes of those with privilege versus those without' ***** 'This is one of those totally addictive psychological thrillers that has you reading 'just one more page' and ignoring everything else you need to do until you finish it' *****
