Sinopsis

From the New York Times–bestselling author, a tale of family tensions and foul play at a snowed-in Connecticut country house . . . Laura and Henry Frazier, David Gates, and Alice Bullowe are in Connecticut for Christmas. The family is staying in a country home Laura inherited from her aunt, Clara, and Alice, also a niece of the late Clara Beame, is more than a little disappointed by the terms of the will. As an edge of hostility threatens to spoil the party, the drama only grows as manipulative games are played, a blizzard roars outside, a surprise guest arrives—and the holiday turns more scary than merry . . . “One of the few mysteries where no one at all seems to be off limits as the murderer.” —Dead YesterdayPraise for Taylor Caldwell “Her sense of timing and her ability to keep even the most alert reader guessing is something readers don’t find very often.” —Hartford Courant “This bestselling author can tell an engrossing story.” —Publishers Weekly

    The bestselling author of The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel delivers a “provocative, enthralling, bang up-to-the-minute” thriller (Daily Mail). It all starts with a prize. The Price family wins a holiday trip to Florida and gets their photo in the paper. They’re all there, the picture-perfect family in front of their gorgeous home. But it’s awkward, adolescent, seventeen-year-old Hannah who catches someone’s eye. And only days later, she’s gone. Val and Morris Price try not to panic when Hannah doesn’t return from Camden Market on Sunday night. After all, she is a teenager. But when Hannah still hasn’t shown up on Monday, they start to think the worst—then the ransom note comes with a demand for £500,000 and no police. After days of tallying assets and scrambling for money, Val makes the drop. Hannah comes home. Only what should be the end of a nightmare is just the beginning . . . The Prices’ have lost their business and their home. Their sudden change in fortune takes its toll, and family bonds slowly begin to disintegrate. Meanwhile, the desperate couple who kidnapped Hannah embark on a life of luxury that only fuels their twisted love. But what goes up must come down . . . with a crash. “A neat plot . . . [with] dark flashes of hubris and nemesis.” —The Guardian “Moggach’s subject is the rickety edifice we call the family, which she comes at armed with both a wrecking ball and an insatiable curiosity to note the particular way it collapses.” —The Independent “Deborah Moggach is a delight to read—her characters are wonderfully alive, and their stories grip us unequivocally. . . . The novel is enjoyable from first to last.” —The Daily Telegraph “It is characterisation at which Moggach excels. Her gift is to perceive and describe our confusions about life . . . and to write with feeling about the continual quest for love and happiness that is part of the human condition.” —The Sunday Times

    Bali Book Intro 
    Jeff Morrison thought he'd found everything he'd been searching for in Bali. 
    Love. Opportunity. A second chance at life. 
    He was wrong about all of it. 
    The Instagram romance that felt like fate. The devoted wife who seemed too good to be true.  
    The business partnership promising wealth and freedom. Every piece was part of an elaborate con—a trap set by criminals who'd perfected their scam on dozens of victims before Jeff. 
    Now he's fighting for survival. His money is gone. He's facing false criminal charges.  
    The woman he married has disappeared. And the ruthless syndicate behind it all wants him silenced, broken, or dead. 
    With nowhere to turn in a country where the law can be bought, and the mafia operates openly, Jeff must outsmart predators who've made a fortune destroying lives like his. 
    Based on true events, YOU WILL DIE IN BALI reveals the nightmare hidden behind Bali's postcard-perfect beaches—and one man's desperate fight to escape with his life.
