'It's no wonder that Musso is one of France's most loved, bestselling authors'
Harlan Coben

In 1999, after publishing three cult novels, celebrated author Nathan Fawles announces the end of his writing career and withdraws to Beaumont, a wild and beautiful island off the Mediterranean coast.

Autumn 2018. As Fawles' novels continue to captivate readers, Mathilde Monney, a young Swiss journalist, arrives on the island, determined to unlock the writer's secrets and secure his first interview in twenty years.

That same day, a woman's body is discovered on the beach and the island is cordoned off by the authorities.

And so, begins a dangerous face off between Mathilde and Nathan, in which the line between truth and fiction becomes increasingly blurred...

'One of the great thriller writers of our age'
Daily Express

'Stylish and streamlined, nostalgic... More please'
The Times

'Hugely enjoyable and beautifully staged, with an audacious authorial coup at the death that is simply breathtaking'
Irish Times

'The French call it a coup de foudre: a strike of lightning. That's how The Reunion zapped me, electrified me. For almost a decade, Guillaume Musso has reigned supreme as France's most popular author, and with this he's instantly poised to join the ranks of Stieg Larsson and Jo Nesbo'
A.J. Finn, author of The Woman in the Window
