A true-crime-inspired thriller set in 1950s Hollywood that follows three women seeking revenge on the same alluring but dangerous actor.
From the author of BBC Between the Covers pick The Unspeakable Acts of Zina Pavlou.
'Gripping and compelling.' LAURA MARSHALL
'A magnificent melodrama, full of glamour and grit.' THE TIMES
THREE WOMEN. ONE SHOT AT REVENGE.
Hollywood, 1954. At night, before we’re strapped to our beds, the nurses let us watch a film. We’re allowed a moment of make believe, as the faces of stars fill the screen.
Tonight, though, I recognise the man on screen. His name is written large above the title on the opening credits. Everyone knows him.
But I know him. I know that he likes his coffee strong and his women weak. I know that he owns the world yet is terrified of losing it. I know what happened on the night of the Oscars party.
And it’s time for me to get out of here and tell the world what he did.
Following the story of three women in the orbit of the same insidious man, A Beautiful Way to Die is a true-crime-inspired thriller perfect for fans of The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, Bright Young Women and The Silent Patient.
'Deeply atmospheric... I couldn't put this down.' LOUISE HARE
'Dark and gripping.' NIKKI SMITH
'Evocative, tense, seductive.' TAMMY COHEN
'I was utterly gripped.' LESLEY KARA
'Both dazzling and devastating.' CLARE WHITFIELD
