Description

Meet the women of Harrington Estates. They're one big happy family. At least, that's what they all say...

New arrival Bella is determined to get to the top, and she doesn't mind stepping on some Louboutin-clad toes to get there.

No-nonsense Hannah was the rising star, but now Bella's stealing her thunder - and her agent of the year award.

Olivia wants it all - the glittering career, the picture-perfect family. But lately it feels like something - or someone - is trying to snatch it away.

Then there's poor Claire, who has lost more keys than sold properties - and Bella makes sure the whole office knows it.

When Bella is found dead at the open house for a 10-million mansion, everyone's a suspect. They'd all die for that listing, after all.

But did one of them kill for it?

Fans of How to Kill Your Family and Selling Sunsets will love this hilariously dark thriller from Kate Weston, with characters you'll love to hate, vicious office politics, and a twist you'll NEVER see coming.

Critic Reviews

Absolutely delicious - a furiously funny page turner which kept me guessing up until the very last moment. This book is so much fun. -- Daisy Buchanan
I adored this book! It is riotously funny, horribly familiar, and a brilliantly compelling story. I related so hard to way too much of it, revelled in the darkness, and can't wait for Kate Weston's next novel. Hard recommend! -- Lucy Vine on YOU MAY NOW KILL THE BRIDE
Outrageously entertaining -- Maz Evans on YOU MAY NOW KILL THE BRIDE
Brilliantly plotted -- Amy Beashel on YOU MAY NOW KILL THE BRIDE
