The Party in the Woods

From the critically acclaimed author of When We Were Silent comes a dark, addictive thriller that will plunge you into Dublin's underground rave scene, perfect for fans of Tana French, Erin Kelly and Lisa Jewell. “Annie couldn’t have known that this was the last time they would all be together, the last time anything would ever be the same again.” When Sean Salinger vanished without trace after a rave in the Dublin mountains in 2001, his friends never wanted to talk about that night again. Twenty-two years later, Annie Fagan is still asking questions. And when a grisly discovery reframes Sean’s disappearance as murder, she’s pulled back into the circle she thought she’d left behind for good. Back to a world of strobing lights, pulse-pounding basslines and the alluring chaos of the dancefloor. But digging up the past means exposing who her friends really are – and what they did to keep their secrets buried. Because someone at that party knows what happened to Sean. Someone who has killed before.Someone who will kill again . . .
