About this title

Synopsis

“Bold and bloody, it's a thriller with real bite.” ―Riley Sager
“Highly imaginative and totally unique.” ―Alex Michaelides
“Wickedly smart…It seizes your breath from the first page and refuses to let go!" ―Lisa Jewell

Four childhood friends, eager for a taste of city life, swap rural Brazil for an apartment in Copacabana, Rio. But they have no idea of the fate that awaits them there. . . .

Dante, Piglet, Miguel, and Hugo are your average students trying to make ends meet with part-time jobs, excited about the bright futures at their fingertips. So when their rent skyrockets, they struggle to keep their new lives and big dreams afloat. They need to make money however they can. In order to keep their apartment, the friends adopt an unorthodox plan and are soon sucked into a dark world of secret dinner parties catering to the twisted fantasies of Rio’s elite.
