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?

A whip-smart, fun, and stylish novel: I raced through it.

Gillian McAllister, Sunday Times bestselling author of Wrong Place, Wrong Time and Just Another Missing Person

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!

Ashley Winstead, author of Midnight is the Darkest Hour

This book! This book was SO GOOD. I absolutely could not put this one down. Bad Tourists is one of the best thrillers I’ve read—it feels like White Lotus in book form, and kept me guessing the entire way through. I was thoroughly impressed by Caro's skill at unravelling this world from its idyllic vacation vibes into something that gave me chills upon chills when I read the final lines.

Kayla Olson, author of The Reunion

In Bad Tourists, Caro Carver expertly blends a locked room mystery with a story about midlife, female friendship, and trust. The result is a propulsive page-turner of a thriller that delivers enough twists to keep readers off-balance and desperately turning pages. It’s fresh, dark, and totally unexpected—guaranteed to be a summer blockbuster!

Nicole Baart, bestselling author of Everything We Didn’t Say
