| The Wild Girls is a mystery thriller, set in Botswana, that carries a clear a sinister tone throughout. A group of four friends, that have drifted apart over the years, come together for a birthday party. Invited to an all-expenses paid weekend for Felicity’s birthday, Grace, Hannah and Alice head to the interestingly names Deception Valley Lodge in Botswana. Arriving to luxury, their every need looks to be catered for but where is the birthday girl? From start to finish you cannot shake the sinister feeling that all is not going to go well in and that the characters are in a lot of danger. It is very well written, especially the characters; they were totally relatable and each had their own insecurities or anxieties. The story went from the present day to their past and I found that this told the story well, we saw why each character was “flawed” and how they had all come to drift apart. As the drama unfolds, I was on the edge of my seat. Dark, intense and thrilling, Phoebe Morgan writes so well. I would’ve liked a bit more of Botswana included, such an exotic and out of the ordinary place to go – I felt it could have been celebrated some more. For fans of creepy, thrillers this is a must read. Available to purchase HERE |
