The Christmas Party

De: Kathryn Croft

Narrado por: Billie Piper, Avita Jay

Tis the season for secrets and suspicion.

A chilling psychological thriller with a twist that you won't see coming, narrated by Billie Piper and Avita Jay. This Audible Original, by #1 bestselling author Kathryn Croft, is perfect for fans of Lisa Jewell, Sarah A Denzil and K L Slater.

When Sasha receives a call from her old university friend Gabby inviting her to spend Christmas at Gabby’s remote Scottish lake house, Sasha knows she shouldn’t go.

Twelve years ago, on Christmas Eve, when Sasha and her five closest friends were celebrating the festive season, something truly horrific happened that would change the course of their friendship forever. Something that meant Sasha hasn’t spoken to any of them since that night.

But Gabby is insistent that they all get together this Christmas, to finally help her move on from the events of that night, so Sasha agrees to go.

Arriving at the sprawling house overlooking a stunning loch, Sasha quickly realises that Gabby has other reasons for getting the six friends together this Christmas. And now Sasha is forced to relive a past she’s tried hard to forget.

People had always told them their friendship wasn’t healthy. That the six of them spent far too much time together. No good would come of it, they said. How could relationships with others work when the six of them were so tightly interwoven?

When a snowstorm isolates them from the outside world, old flames are rekindled and tensions run high, and it soon becomes obvious: nothing that big can stay secret forever.

The mystery of the story.

I did not like the heavy use of fowl language and serial content. That could have been omitted and still made a great story line.

Terrible ending

The end!!!!! ???? There was so much still in the story I can’t belive it ended there

Slow…

Skipped 1/2 the chapters to get to the end! So repetitive and boring…. 🥱 I just wanted to know the culprit and stop!

past and present haunt them

id did like the bounce between post and present. some choices made by characters just seemed dumb.

VERY VERY good read

accidentally found this while looking for the Hallmark-esque murder podcasts ( which are exactly what you'd expect and you should try them) and this is probably one of the best things I've read on audible to date. combining two of my favorite things, crime and Christmas, is difficult but this hit the nail on the head. It reminds me of the Christopher Pike books I read when I was younger, but for adults

Detailed and descriptive- kept me immersed the entire time.

The narrator of this story was awesome! This book kept me interested the entire time, and had me trying to solve the mystery throughout the whole story. Great read!

The narrator was really good!!!

Def a good audible for if you can’t find another good mystery currently or you just want something for a car ride!!! It was very good and a good plot twist at the end!

I loved the narration

Great read. Great storyline that had me guessing all the way to the end. I would recommend this book and look forward to hearing more stories from this author.

Interesting storyline

I wish the story would have been longer, but it was a good listen overall.

Christmas will never be the same

I thought the story was good, especially in the beginning. The narrating temple was good and conforming to the point of capturing your attention. Overall I thought the story was good, but could have better ending.
