Liza North’s new thriller, “The Weekend Guests,” delves into a weekend gathering among a group of college friends that takes a dark turn. The story unfolds in alternating chapters, revealing shared secrets and tensions among the characters. Set in both 2019 and in the past during their time as students in Edinburgh, the novel explores the complex dynamics of friendships over time.
North, a educated at top universities, explains that the characters in the book are not based on real individuals, but rather represent the ways in which friendships can evolve and change. The Queen Bee of the group, Aline, and the outsider Darryl, who descends into madness, are particularly memorable characters that took on a life of their own as North wrote the story.
As the plot thickens and tensions rise, “The Weekend Guests” offers a unique perspective on the events through Darryl’s point of view, adding depth and intrigue to the narrative. The book is now available for readers to dive into the twists and turns of this thrilling tale.
