A Beautiful Way to Die

From the author of BBC Between the Covers pick The Unspeakable Acts of Zina Pavlou. 'Gripping and compelling.' LAURA MARSHALL 'A magnificent melodrama, full of glamour and grit.' THE TIMES THREE WOMEN. ONE SHOT AT REVENGE. Hollywood, 1954. At night, before we re strapped to our beds, the nurses let us watch a movie. A moment of make-believe in this place of nightmares. Tonight, though, I recognise the man in the film. His name is written large above the title on the opening credits. Everyone knows him. But I know him. I know that he likes his martinis strong and his women weak. I know that he owns the world yet is terrified of losing it. I know what happened on the night of the Oscars party. Now it s time to get out of here and make him pay for what he did. Following the story of three women in the orbit of the same insidious man, A Beautiful Way to Die is a true-crime-inspired thriller perfect for fans of The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, Bright Young Women and The Silent Patient.
