The Birdcage

The spellbinding new mystery from the author of Sunday Times bestseller and Richard and Judy pick The Glass House

1999: The summer of the total solar eclipse. Three teenage half-sisters - Lauren, Kat and Flora - are staying at Rock Point, a remote Cornish house, under the neglectful eye of their artist father. They sit for his famous portrait, Girls and Birdcage. And hide a devastating secret.

2019: A winter reunion at Rock Point throws their lives into disarray. It's the first time they've been back since that summer - and they're trying to put it behind them. But someone is watching the house. Someone who recognises the girls in the painting. And won't let the past lie...

Eve Chase does it again! The Birdcage is glorious; a bittersweet, beautifully written, slow burn family drama with a killer kick in the closing chapters. I loved every word of it

Lisa Jewell, bestselling author of The Night She Disappeared
