Give Me Your Hand

Published by: Picador

A dark, uneasy tale of the betrayals, secrets and lies that sit beneath the surface of a female friendship built on, and ultimately threatened by, female ambition. Megan Abbott once again shows her skill at making the reader feel uncomfortable. Beautifully written, claustrophobically tense and atmospheric, this book manages to be simultaneously thrilling and lyrical.
