The Holiday Home

Unpack more secrets with Jess Ryder this summer... the bestselling author of The Villa and The Ex-Wife.

-----

For as long as they can remember, sisters Luna and Bella have spent every summer at Casa Ouida, a converted farmhouse in Tuscany boasting its own olive grove and spectacular mountain views.

Filled with memories of sun-soaked days and laughter-filled nights, Casa Ouida has always been their haven.

That is, until their father's body is found at the bottom of the stairs.

The mystery deepens when a family arrives, claiming they've rented Casa Ouida for the summer. Are they innocent vacationers, or do they know more than they're letting on?

As Luna and Bella start to dig, they uncover secrets that threaten to destroy everything they hold dear.

Because this summer, someone didn't come here to relax - they came here to kill.
