Book synopsis
In a remote Spanish villa in 1930, two guests, Megan and Henry, discover their host Bunny murdered in his locked bedroom. Trapped in a house with no telephone and only one staircase, the two former friends turn on each other in a claustrophobic psychological duel. As they trade accusations and dismantle each other's alibis, they must confront a dark secret from their past in Oxford that gave them both a motive for murder.
