Reviews

Lush, atmospheric and suspenseful, this is the queen of the destination thriller at her absolute finest. Prepare to be gripped, moved, and transported to the beautiful Azores.

Beth O’Leary, author of The Flat Share

“Devastating, beautiful and wildly compelling - by the final chapters I was reading at sprint speed. Lucy Clarke is a peerless destination thriller writer and the luscious Azores setting is the perfect backdrop for her maddeningly clever, twisty plot. I inhaled it.”

Rosie Walsh, author of The Love of My Life

Unsettling and enthralling, this is escapism at its best as Lucy does so well.

Heidi Perks, author of Now You See Her

Wish You Were Here is Lucy Clarke flying high, with a location that's at once luscious and unsettling, a magnetic cast of characters, and a tricksy, deftly woven plot. At once a cautionary tale of a promised land and an examination of the complex dynamics in a tight-knit group of friends, this is a beautifully evocative and thoroughly engrossing novel. Destination thriller writing in a class of its own.

Emylia Hall, author of The Thousand Lights Hotel
