A short novel to gulp down in one sitting, The Winter Guest, from Sunday Times bestselling author, Sarah Moss, is an enthralling story about how the past will always come to find you in the end. 'Deliciously twisty. Destined to be one of those Christmas Eve classics' - Rachel Joyce 'Pure pleasure from start to finish' - Katherine Rundell Tell me the worst thing you've ever done. On Christmas Eve, in a hotel on Ireland's west coast, a man and a woman meet for the first time. As a snowstorm gathers outside windows twinkling with fairy lights, they share a meal, pour wine, propose a toast. Janice and Gerry may be strangers to one another, but they each have a confession to make. As the blizzard howls, the night will take an unexpected turn, and their conversation will have consequences far beyond the candlelit table . . . 'A perfectly measured serving of expert storytelling with a deliciously dark twist. I inhaled it in a single sitting.
