About this audiobook
They're all killers, but only one will resort to murder. The stunning new novel from international bestseller Kayte Nunn, for all fans of Lucy Foley and White Lotus.
Newly widowed beauty entrepreneur Vivi Savidge's fortieth birthday is fast approaching, and she plans to celebrate it at the Palazzo Stellina, a historic former convent in the foothills of the Italian Alps run by disgraced chef Marco Bianchi and his elderly grandmother.
Vivi's little sister, Alice, is flying from Brisbane with her sixteen-year-old twins in tow. Ex-colleague Pete and his new husband, Nick, are coming from Boston, and old friend Caroline is driving from Turin. Every one of them is hiding a shameful secret.
Vivi's hopes for a relaxing holiday surrounded by those closest to her are soon overshadowed by an anonymous blackmail threat, and she begins to wonder if someone she thought she could trust might just as easily betray her.
Amid a suffocating heatwave, the holiday ignites an explosive cocktail of obsession, jealousy and greed. Before the week is over, secrets will be exposed and the gathering will turn deadly, leaving one victim, a handful of suspects, and a murderer in their midst.
'This slow-burn crime book delivers' Daily Telegraph 5/5 stars
'A brilliantly twisty thriller in a beautiful setting. I couldn't put this down' Pip Drysdale
'A perfectly plotted mystery in a delicious setting, full of characters struggling to hide their darkest selves. I was turning the pages faster and faster, my theories constantly tested until the final page. The Palazzo is the very best kind of absorbing storytelling.' Sara Foster
'The Palazzo is an absorbing and hugely enjoyable read with rich characters and a layered plot. This sophisticated novel will whisk you away from everyday life and immerse you in the Italian mountainside, which turns out to be as deadly as it is idyllic' B.M. Carroll
