Publishers Description: Sweet sixteen. Its a coming of age, a milestone, a rite of passage. Of course Jeff and Kim Sanders would throw a party for their daughter, Hannah. She was a good kid with good grades and nice friends. And it wasnt a big, indulgent affair. It was just four girls coming over for pizza and cake, movies and a sleepover. What could possibly go wrongBut things did go wrong, horrifically wrong. When a tragic accident leaves one of the young guests disfigured, Jeff and Kims flawless life in a wealthy San Francisco suburb begins to unravel. The injured girls mother, Lisa, files a lawsuit that turns friends into enemies, reveals dark secrets in the Sanders marriage, and exposes the truth about their perfect daughter, Hannah. Lisas determination to make the Sanders pay stems from a fierce love for her only child and Lisas own dark and damaged past. At school, Hannah must deal with the ugly aftermath as her peers turn on the victim, and she struggles to maintain her social standing while heeding her moral compass. Her popular best friend, Lauren, is losing herself to drugs, alcohol, and a relationship with an inappropriate older man. Then a shocking, horrifying act of desperation rocks their upscale world and brings everything to a halt. And no ones life will ever be the same. In The Party, Christos Tsiolkass The Slap meets Liane Moriartys Big Little Lies, taking us behind the facade of the perfect family, exploring the secrets, betrayals, and moral lapses the neighbors dont see. The Party uncovers the lies and duplicities that children and parents tell each other. And tell themselves. - The Party By Robyn Harding (Paperback)
