Publisher's Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

Totally original and utterly compelling, with a voice all of its own, this is the outstanding new thriller from the no.1 internationally bestselling author of The Silent Patient, Alex Michaelides.

This is a tale of murder.

Or maybe that's not quite true. At its heart, it's a love story, isn't it?

One spring morning, reclusive ex-movie star Lana Farrar invites a small group of her closest friends for a weekend away, on her small private island, just off the coast of Mykonos.

Beneath the surface, old friendships conceal violent passions and resentments. And in forty-eight hours, one of them will be dead.

But that was just the beginning...

You may think you know this story. Think again.

Critic Reviews

Gloriously atmospheric and utterly riveting, this is my favourite Alex Michaelides yet. Readers you are in for a treat! But then what else would you expect from the undisputed master of the twist? (Lucy Foley)
Alex Michaelides hits the trifecta with his third novel, The Fury. The highly original story structure presents the reader with the king of all unreliable narrators, enough twists and turns to power two novels, and a host of characters that bleed right on the page. For fans of erudite, locked room mysteries told with style and theatrical panache, The Fury will deliver, on all counts (David Baldacci)
You'll think you know where it's going and you couldn't be more wrong (Linwood Barclay)

Somewhat overwraught

To me, this book felt somewhat overwrought & contrived compared to his other books. I persevered but didn’t enjoy it much.

Thought it was going nowhere but then!

It kept me interested, especially when doing mundane tasks. The plot seemed to be basic but it twisted at the end.

The Fury keeps you guessing

Fantastic book, with twists and turns; the highlight being development of the central protagonist into a complex, unlikeable character. Genius.
