Tangerine

'Girl on a Train meets The Talented Mr Ripley under the Moroccan sun.
Unputdownable' The Times

The perfect read for fans of Daphne du Maurier and Patricia Highsmith, set in
1950s Morocco, Tangerine is a gripping psychological literary thriller.

The last person Alice Shipley expected to see since arriving in Tangier with
her new husband was Lucy Mason. After the horrific accident at Bennington, the
two friends - once inseparable roommates - haven't spoken in over a year. But
Lucy is standing there, trying to make things right.

Perhaps Alice should be happy. She has not adjusted to life in Morocco, too
afraid to venture out into the bustling medinas and oppressive heat. Lucy,
always fearless and independent, helps Alice emerge from her flat and explore
the country.

But soon a familiar feeling starts to overtake Alice - she feels controlled
and stifled by Lucy at every turn. Then Alice's husband, John, goes missing,
and Alice starts to question everything around her: her relationship with her
enigmatic friend, her decision to ever come to Tangier, and her very own state
of mind.

Tangerine is an extraordinary debut, so tightly wound, so evocative of 1950s
Tangier, and so cleverly plotted that it will leave you absolutely breathless.
