What kind of family would drive someone to murder? An Australian domestic noir dripping with tension and emotion from the #1 bestselling author of See How They Fall
On Sydney's most exclusive headland sits Eden, the Kirkwood's clifftop mansion: white hydrangeas, harbour views and wealth so vast it keeps scandals safely behind closed doors.
At the party of the year for their darling Belle's eighteenth birthday, fireworks, designer frocks, political heavyweights and old money present the image of perfection.
By dawn, a body is found at the bottom of the terrace steps and Eden is a crime scene.
Everyone has a version of what happened that night. Belle, who arranged for an illicit delivery. Her aunt, Sophie, who had been fighting with her sister in the pool house. TJ, a young man from the other side of town, who walked into the wrong bedroom at exactly the wrong moment.
Not That Kind of Family peels back the surface of privilege to expose the darkness within - because the most dangerous thing at Eden isn't the champagne or the cliff edge, it's what happens when the wrong family secret finally slips out.
