Why read it?

2 authors picked The Wild Girls as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

During lockdown I was invited to take part in an online event with three other authors, one of whom was Phoebe Morgan.

I read all three authors’ books in preparation and was quickly drawn into The Wild Girls. The locked room in this case is a luxury lodge in Botswana, the cast of characters four friends who have avoided each other for the past couple of years.

And then one of the four invites the others to celebrate her birthday with a trip to Africa, all expenses paid. But when the trio arrives the hostess is nowhere to be seen.…

From Marion's list on locked room mysteries.

A who-dunnit-it amongst four friends is the premise at the centre of this novel and the setting (a safari lodge in Botswana) is the perfect backdrop for the story of friendship, betrayal, lies, and revenge. I found myself holding my breath at times because the tension was so high. The characters are relatable and you can identify easily with them too.
