​About Claws Out

​’Delicious’ – Jojo Moyes

​’Super-sharp, lethally witty’ – Nigella Lawson

​’You know Diana Leyland… She climbed the ladder by marrying a man on each rung! I think she gets rid of them when she’s got what she needs… I wonder who’s next?’

​Diana’s on the hunt again and has the perfect new target.

​Finally, the type of wealth she’s always dreamed of. A five-storey house in Hampstead, unfettered access to London’s liberal elite and a bloated bank account. If she can ensnare David Farrand, then she really will have clawed her way right to the top.

​And Diana’s got form. Three husbands already under her belt, she knows exactly how to reel them in. Such a shame the silly old fools all died so quickly, but let’s not blame the woman now.

​The only snag? David’s daughter, Cat. Entitled, suspicious and used to getting her own way. Diana might have got her claws into David, but Cat’s not averse to a fight, and will stop at nothing to reveal the truth about her murky past…

​Because to lose one husband is unlucky. To lose two is careless. But three?

​Three must be murder.
