A young woman pretends to be someone she isn't in this stunning novel by the New York Times bestselling author of The Girls

Summer is coming to a close on Long Island, and Alex is no longer welcome...

One misstep at a dinner party and the older man she's been staying with dismisses her with a ride to the train station and a ticket back to the city. With few resources, but a gift for navigating the desires of others, Alex stays on the island. She drifts like a ghost through the gated driveways and sun-blasted dunes of a rarefied world, trailing destruction in her wake.

Taut, sensual and impossible to look away from, The Guest captures the latent heat and potential danger of a summer that could go either way for a young woman teetering on the edge.

批評家のレビュー

Sultry and engrossing, with a note of menace, it's a gorgeously smart affair whose deceptive lightness conceals strange depths and an arresting originality . . . take it to the beach and savour every page (Rob Doyle)
Drawing the reader inexorably on to the heightened, rug-pulling denouement, this is beach reading at its finest (Stephanie Cross)
Every sentence as sharp as a scalpel . . . tantalizing (Liska Jacobs)
At once chilling and eminently evocative of the rarefied world it portrays . . . a definite contender for Status Vacation Book of 2023
The ideal mix of hazy summer glamour and shimmering threat for compulsive beach reading... A gripping, almost ghastly book (Megan Nolan, author of ACTS OF DESPERATION)
The Girls was exceptional; The Guest, with its exquisite pacing and deliciously muddled moral compass, is even better (Emily Watkins)
Atmospheric and at times incandescent (Michelle Hart)
Cline's writing at its very best - hypnotically propulsive, viscerally disquieting, and moving in the most unpredictable ways (Doug Battersby)
The tension never wavers . . . This is rich material for Cline, who trains a chilly eye on the preposterous affluence and exclusivity of that part of the world (Emma Brockes)
The Girls was exceptional; The Guest...is even better... Compulsively readable... The Guest is as refreshing as a dip in a cool pool on a hot day
