Hello and thank you for visiting my author page! I am the author of seven novels, the most recent of which is THE WEDDING, which tells the story of Meg who travels to Wales for the wedding of her university friend, Polly. Meg has been looking forward to this, but over the course of the following 24 hours old resentments rise to the surface, grievances are aired and secrets are revealed in the most catastrophic way. It will be a weekend Meg and her friends never forget, but for all the wrong reasons.

Before turning to fiction, I worked as a journalist for many years, and during my career I interviewed hundreds of people with stories to tell. Listening to their experiences gave me a fascinating insight into humanity in all its guises: what makes people tick and how they react to whatever life throws at them. I aim to write books that suck the reader in: plots that keep you turning the pages and characters who work their way inside your head. The sort of books where you have to read just one more chapter before you turn off the bedside light at night.

I live in Gloucestershire with my husband and far too many animals and we have three grown up children. If you'd like to find out more about me and my writing, please visit my website - www. sarahedghill. com

In THE GOOD DAUGHTER (publ Oct 24) Eve is struggling to hold things together as emotional and physical demands are being made on her from all sides: her elderly mother has just gone into a nursing home, her young son is playing up at school and her ex seems to be enjoying a perfect life with his new wife and their daughter. Then Eve discovers a family secret that threatens to undermine everything she thought she knew about her own past.

In THE POOL (publ June 24) two sisters and their families arrive for a holiday at a French villa, to find a dead body floating in the swimming pool.

In MEMORY ROAD (publ March 24) Lily takes her elderly mother, Moira, on one last roadtrip around the UK.
