Brought to you by Penguin.
Is it ever a good idea to go on holiday with friends?
Darcy, Camilla and Kate have each come on this trip of a lifetime for a reason - to celebrate a divorce, to find love, to try to put a traumatic past behind them.
Their dream getaway? The Sapphire Island Resort in the Maldives. With crystal-clear waters and sun-drenched white sand beaches, relaxation is guaranteed.
But all is not as it seems in paradise, and this is no ordinary friendship.
They've got nine days to go . . . and old wounds are already reopening.
Will they all make the return journey?

Reviews
A twisty, turny, deliciously dark thriller set in paradise. I couldn’t put it down. As transportive as a dream vacation, Caro Carver’s Bad Tourists blew me away with its smart, sharp writing, breakneck pacing, and clever twists. This is the ultimate destination thriller, with a dazzling setting, glamorous characters, and secret, sinister plot simmering under the cocktails-and-cabanas surface. Carver's stunner belongs at the top of every thriller lover’s TBR this summer. I couldn't get enough! With a genius premise, Bad Tourists hooks from the first page and doesn't let go until the nail-biting final chapter when the cleverly woven threads pull together for a perfect ending. A sublime thriller, an absolute scorcher. I loved it! A whip-smart, fun, and stylish novel: I raced through it. A captivating, sinister, sophisticated mystery that had me reading at rapid speed and pulling the covers up to my chin. The twists are ingenious and the finale, utterly explosive. In evocative, propulsive prose, Caro Carver has delivered a sizzler. Armchair travelers and thriller lovers rejoice: this is the dark side of paradise, on steroids.
