The Pool Party
Autor Rebecca Bainbridgeen Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 iul 2026
One summer's day. Two families. Countless secrets . . .
Kate is new to the idyllic village of Fletching. She's determined this move will be a fresh start for her family, though she misses her old life.
Melody has it all: she's as beautiful as her house, with a wealthy husband and two beloved children. But she'd love a friend she can rely on.
From the year's first school run, Kate and Melody grow close - a friendship formed during playdates and shared glasses of wine.
But when Melody's annual summer party turns into every parent's worst nightmare, a near-fatal accident threatens to expose secrets both women have kept beneath the surface.
Who is really to blame? And what have they been hiding?

Recenzii
A pacy and sharply observed thriller about the precariousness of 'school gate' friendships and the lengths we'll go to to protect our externally perfect veneers. Fans of Liane Moriarty will want to dive right in!
An utterly addictive and moving portrait of marital breakdown, burrowing guilt and personal sorrow set against the unfeeling and competitive world of private schools and pool parties . . . one to enjoy and devour next summer
Secrets and lies abound in Fletching, a picture-perfect - and expensive - village, where everyone is desperately trying to keep up appearances. The Pool Party had me turning pages late into the night with its insightful and clever dissection of competitive parenting, toxic marriages and school-gate frenemies. The perfect summer page-turner for fans of Big Little Lies!
A finely-wrought story that smoulders with menace from the first page . . . builds steadily to the most shocking of revelations and like all the best stories has a final sting in the tale
Utterly addictive - a twisty tale of friendship, belonging, and the secrets that fester beneath the surface. The Pool Party is everything you want in a summer read
Much like the pool parties thrown by the glamorous Melody, it's a decadent summer read: rich with toxic friendships and simmering secrets washed down with lashings of Sauvignon Blanc . . . Taut, compelling and the perfect pairing with your sun lounger next summer
A standout debut novel, brimful of simmering secrets. Throw in some toxic female friendships, a shed-load of champagne, and a shocking accident at a pool party, and you have yourself an impossible-to-put-down thriller
