"High Season ripped me out of a reading slump as I found myself devouring this tale of privilege, loss, and the slippery nature of memory. The setting is so perfectly rendered that you can almost taste the saltwater, and the characters are so sensitively drawn I often had a knot in my stomach as I read late into the night. Bishop writes unbelievably beautifully about the complex relationships forged in youth, and the fragility of memory in the aftermath of tragedy".—Ella Berman, author of Before We Were Innocent

"True crime meets the Côte d’Azur in this layered, insightful novel that transcends its absorbing premise. Mystery and secrets abound at the Pink House, but it’s Katie Bishop’s vividly drawn characters and their web of entanglements that will keep you turning pages. High Season handles its themes deftly—about trauma and memory, class and girlhood, family and forgiveness—while also offering a nuanced critique of true crime voyeurism."—Emily Layden, author of Once More from the Top

"Katie Bishop’s High Season will be the highlight of your summer reading. Bishop expertly ratchets up the tension in this intelligent and finely crafted thriller set in the fading glamour of a French Riviera town, making the reader feel every degree of the increasingly oppressive heat in along with her cast of well-drawn characters. The result is a novel that stays with you long after you’ve finished the last page." —Lexie Elliott, author of Richard & Judy Book Club pick How To Kill Your Best Friend
