Auld Acquaintance by Sofia Slater

Millie Partridge desperately needs a party. With beautiful timing, her (handsome and charming) ex-colleague Nick invites her to a Hebridean Island for New Year’s Eve.

Things go wrong the moment the ferry drops her off. The stately home is more down-at-heel than Downton Abbey. Nick hasn’t arrived yet. And the other revellers? Politely speaking, they aren’t exactly who she would have pictured Nick would be friends with. One thing is for sure – they’re going to see in the new year with a bang. A tense and claustrophobic debut.
