THE PLANNING TOOK MONTHS. THE MURDER JUST MOMENTS...

Nadine Walsh is determined to make her summer garden party the event of the year.

Everyone deserves a celebration after the year they've had. A chance to forget.

As she prepares to welcome her guests, however, Nadine can't help but be distracted. Her husband is of little help to her. Her two grown children are consumed with their own concerns.

But it's Nadine's own secrets that threaten to destroy her perfect party.

By the end of the night, Nadine will be standing over a dead body in the basement.

But which of her guests will she have murdered? And why?

Critic reviews

'What a mad delight this book is - so seductive and twisted. Highly recommended!' (Shari Lapena)

'Stuart cleverly turns the classic whodunit on its head; in this case we know who the murderer is - the victim's identity is the question mark. A chilling exploration of how we cope with the things we've done, as well as those that have been done to us.' (Stephanie Wrobel)

'A superb masterpiece. A Death At The Party brilliantly unfolds over the course of a single day, featuring a deliciously imperfect protagonist untwining her past as she prepares for the party of her life. Stuart's crisp writing and tightly paced plot made me hold my breath from the first line to the last. This is an absolutely stand-out book by a phenomenal talent.' (Samantha M. Bailey)

I expected more from the ending as I was left with quite a few unanswered questions. Not a satisfying story for me.
