Talks & Lectures Tess Gerritsen – The Summer Guests

The Summer Guests is the exhilarating and gripping new thriller from Sunday Times bestselling author of The Spy Coast

The Martini Club isn’t open to everyone. Maggie Bird’s ‘book group’ is an unusual one – a group of retired spies living an anonymous life in the seaside town of Purity. And this summer they plan little more than ‘reading’ (whilst sipping martinis), and some gentle birdwatching.

But trouble is just around the corner as the summer guests arrive to packed streets, bar brawls, petty theft. And now, a missing teenager down by the lake.

When their good friend becomes a prime suspect in the girl’s disappearance, they must put down their binoculars and roll up their sleeves, to prove they are not just a meddlesome group of retirees, but able to uncover one of the deadliest scandals their small town has ever seen…
