One of the Girls by Lucy Clarke

The six of us arrived on that beautiful Greek island dreaming of sun-drenched beaches and blood orange sunsets, ready to lose ourselves in the wild freedom of a weekend away with friends.

On the first night we swam under a blanket of stars.

On the second night the games began on our clifftop terrace.

On the third night the idyll cracked, secrets, and lies whispering on the breeze.

And by the final night there was a body on the rocks below . .

WHO WOULD KILL FOR IT?

Later, we would all remember the hen weekend for one reason: because of what happened on the night of the beach fire.- WEDNESDAY

This is a new author for me. I had a great time reading One of the Girls. I don't really think the title fit the book but that didn't stop me thoroughly enjoying it. I thought I knew what to expect from the blurb and was delighted when the book takes some unexpected twists and turns. I also loved the fact each chapter was narrated by a different character and occasionally drops some twisty hints of what's to come. This is the kind of thriller I love, well-written, compelling full of twists and turns with great characters. This is well worth a read.
