Description

'A powerful feminist thriller . . . twisted in the best way' Clémence Michallon, author of The Quiet Tenant

'Clever and utterly absorbing' i News

Seven women stand in shock in a seedy hotel room; a man's severed head sits in the centre of the floor. Each of the women - the wife, the teenager, the ex, the journalist, the colleague, the friend, and the woman who raised him - has a very good reason to have done it, yet each swears she didn't. In order to protect each other, they must figure out who did.

Against the ticking clock of a murder investigation, each woman's secret is brought to light as the connections between them converge to reveal a killer.

An addictive feminist thriller about love, loyalty, and manipulation, Speak of the Devil explores the roles in which women are cast in the lives of terrible men . . . and the fallout when they refuse to stay silent for one moment longer.

'A devilishly immersive read - Rose Wilding is a wonderful new talent' Kamila Shamsie, author of Home Fire

What an incredible debut. Deliciously dark, twisty and utterly gripping. Each woman drawn so perfectly, she could have been sitting right next to you. A depiction of what it is to be a woman, and how powerful we can be together. A flawless tour de force.
