The Perfect Guests
Emma Rous
The USA Today bestselling author of The Au Pair returns with another delicious, twisty novel--about a grand estate with many secrets, an orphan caught in a web of lies, and a young woman playing a sinister game.
Taking place in two different years with one central location, Ravens Hall. A rambling isolated manor in the East Anglian fens. In 1988 taken to stay at the Hall by her aunt, Beth Soames befriends the daughter of a family who lives there. Quickly becoming one of them and finding a place, everything seems perfect until they ask her help during a “harmless” game.
Sadie Langton, in 2019, is an aspiring actress who lands a well-paying job. Given instructions, clothing, and role outlines that seems like a murder mystery dinner. The location is no other than Ravens Hall. Fire damage from previous years adds to the already eerie feeling Sadie has, as more guests come to the hall. Something seems off and it becomes even darker when the realization hits...the host is unseen and playing games with them.
