Reckless Girls ⁽ᴴᵃʳᵈᶜᵒᵛᵉʳ ᴮᴼᴼᴷ⁾ by Rachel Hawkins

Reckless Girls (Hardcover)

Reckless Girls is a wickedly wicked gothic mystery from Rachel Hawkins, the New York Times bestselling author of The Wife Upstairs, set on an isolated Pacific island with a sinister history, for readers of Lucy Foley and Ruth Ware.

A Single Island

Meroe Island, a barren site in the middle of the Pacific Ocean with a fascinating history of shipwrecks, cannibalism, and even murder stories, is beautiful, wild, and odd. It's the ideal location for the most daring visitor to get away from it all... except the truth.

SIX Travelers

Six beautiful twenty-somethings are about to embark on a joyful, free-spirited vacation packed with sun-drenched days and enticing nights. However, as it becomes evident that the party is far more cut off from society than they imagined, it begins to feel as if the island is closing in on them, sending them on a perilous journey of discovery.

HUNDREDS OF SECRETS

When one of the pals goes missing and another is found murdered, the remaining friends wonder what sinister currents lurk beneath this impenetrable paradise and who else will be swept away in its sequestered madness. Reckless Girls will ruin you with its island gothic sensibility, sensual suspense, and spine-tingling reinterpretation of an Agatha Christie classic.

About the authors: Rachel Hawkins

So, I guess we can all agree that I'm the worst blogger in the history of the internet, right? Right. I DID NOT DIE (obviously), but I'm more active on Tumblr or Twitter these days, so if you haven't discovered me there yet, go check it out!

There's a chance this blog won't be around for much longer because I'll be working on some new fancy internet stuff soon.

Reviews: Reckless Girls

You'll wish you were on board with six daring twenty-somethings as they set sail for a South Pacific island in Rachel Hawkins' gripping new thriller. That is, until their secrets are revealed, the island becomes dangerous, and it becomes evident that there is a killer in paradise. Forget about getting a good night's sleep. You'll tear breathlessly through the pages as the body count rises in this fresh and riveting twist on Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None, and you won't stop until you reach the devastating, jaw-dropping climax, one that makes you wonder, "'Can anyone ever be trusted?'" ––Kate White, New York Times bestselling author of The Fiancée

"Reckless Girls" is a sharp and taut novel with a slow-burning tension that rises into an inferno that transports the reader to desolate Meroe Island. Six companions must deal with secrets revealed, remorse and sadness, and a desperate fight for survival in this beautiful, bleak, and dangerous setting. The thriller Reckless Girls is worth staying up all night to finish. " ––Julie Clark, New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of The Last Flight

Rachel Hawkins' sharp and ferocious Reckless Girls is a dazzling mirage of a novel that tantalizes from page one, much like its enticing island location. Each twist in this thrilling narrative of trust and survival is a treasure just waiting to be opened, perfectly constructed, and compulsively readable. " –– Katherine St. John, author of The Lion's Den

The plot builds to an explosive finish, with a gothic feeling of foreboding and plenty of dark secrets. Hawkins examines the intersections of class and gender through the conflicts among her young, beautiful protagonists, yet there are no innocent individuals in this perilous paradise. Fans of The Beach and Lost on television will be captivated. " ––Shelf Awareness

Hawkins expertly weaves revenge, madness, and an increasingly dangerous setting into a well-crafted nightmare in paradise. For Ruth Ware lovers, this is a must-read. " ––Booklist (starred)

Lux's present-tense narrative, which Hawkins peppers with flashbacks revealing the secrets, lies, and betrayals that brought each individual to this point, is complemented by evocative prose and a palpably gloomy atmosphere. There's plenty of danger and interpersonal turmoil, and a flurry of bizarre surprises adds to the entertainment. A claustrophobic, soapy page-turner. " ––Kirkus
