Mad

The first book in an addictive, shocking and hilariously funny series

Summary

'A fast-paced tale of sex, lies and murder' Stylist

What if you could take the life you'd always wanted?

Alvie has always been in the shadow of her glamorous sister Beth.

So when she's invited to her identical twin's luxurious Sicilian villa, Alvie accepts.

Who wouldn't want seven days in the sun?

With Beth's hot husband, the cute baby, the fast car and of course, the money.

The thing is it's all too good to let go . . . and her sister Beth isn't the golden girl she appears.

It's Alvie's chance to steal the life that she deserves.

If she can get away with it.
