**DIVE INTO THE DEBUT OF THE SUMMER**

A captivating novel set against the wild of the Belize jungle – where danger pulses both outside and inside the door…

'Beautiful, compelling, visceral' LUCY CLARKE

‘A captivating debut’ JULIE OWEN MOYLAN

'Secrets reveal themselves like snakes winding through the foliage' VASEEM KHAN

––––––––– It's a liar's paradise

Wittering Lodge, Stann Creek, Belize

In the dead of night, lying in her father’s jungle lodge, Laelia watches her partner Aid sleeping – her mind racing with everything that’s brought her to this moment.

The heady Caribbean holiday when they first met.

The rum-fueled passion that, day by day, creeps into something darker.

The secrets she discovered in a hidden nook of the lodge, revealing a devastating past.

Above all, she thinks about the impossible decision she must make before dawn.

Does she stay silent and protect their newfound paradise? Or does she confront the lies which run as deep and dark as the lagoon – surfacing a dangerous truth from which there’s no return…

A transporting book club novel with the pulse of a thriller, The Night Lagoon is about the secrets and lies that simmer just beneath the surface of paradise.

'Morey’s wonderful debut is arresting from the first and will keep readers guessing until the dynamite conclusion. Fans of Gillian Flynn and Paula Hawkins will flock' LIBRARY JOURNAL, starred review
