DESCRIPTION:

Would you share your New Year's resolution with a stranger?

When Carrie and Andy attend a high-class New Year's Eve Party, they're looking forward to closing out the year in style. But then they meet Martin and Michaela, a couple who haven't just come out for champagne and fireworks. They have a New Year's resolution, and it's very unusual.

After sharing their own resolutions, Carrie and Andy receive a shocking but tempting offer, one that leaves them unsure of how to proceed. But whatever they decide to do, one thing is certain - this will be a New Year's Eve they will never forget.

A fast-paced short story full of twists and turns from the author of popular psychological thrillers Til Death Do Us Part, We Used To Live Here & The Couple In The Cabin.

MY THOUGHTS:

Literally read in one sitting! Well, it is just 51 pages in length and can be easily devoured in an hour which is exactly what I did on this New Year's Eve "eve"! And who could resist a Daniel Hurst thriller? Really?

THE NEW YEAR'S PARTY has all the hallmarks of a classic Daniel Hurst thriller that fans will not be disappointed. How can he deliver us such an exciting twisty thrill ride that is fresh and intriguing in just 51 pages, you ask? Easy! He throws in some thrills, some surprises and a devilishly delightful twist...after...twist...after twist!

Without further ado, be very careful what you wish for this new year's...and who you disclose them to. Because you never know where your wishes, your new-found resolutions, will take you. And never EVER assume anything! While Lies, deceit and betrayal are deadly...revenge is sweet.

Let the games begin!!

A fun and entertaining game of cat and mouse in this little novella from one of my favourite authors to round off the year.

Happy new year to me! J
