‘A deliciously addictive thriller’ – T.M. Logan, author of The Holiday

An exclusive island plays host to a reality show like no other. Cutthroat, twisting and unputdownable, The Villa is a killer beach read from bestselling author Ruth Kelly.

A villa in paradise . . .

It’s destined to be the ultimate reality TV show. Ten contestants. A luxurious villa on a private island. Every moment streamed live to a global audience who have total control over those competing for the cash prize.

A journalist undercover . . .

Reporter Laura is told to get the inside scoop on her fellow contestants. But once the games begin, she soon finds herself at the mercy of a ruthless producer willing to do anything to increase viewer numbers.

A reality show to die for . . .

There is more to every contestant than meets the eye, including Laura. They all have secrets they’d like to keep buried, and the pressure in paradise quickly reaches boiling point. How far will the contestants go to secure audience votes? And would somebody really kill to win?
