Thriller Psychological | Thriller Crime
For fans of Lucy Foley and Liane Moriarty, a
twisty, escapist suspense about a mysterious retreat center
harboring violent secrets.
“Masterfully plotted and superbly
twisty, The Vicious Circle is a read-in-
one-sitting thriller.... This novel will send you spiraling
into a deadly vortex of greed, lust and lies.”
—Rose Carlyle, author of #1 international
bestseller The Girl in the Mirror
A perfect paradise? Or a perfect nightmare?
On a river deep in the Mexican jungle stands the colossal
villa Xanadu, a wellness center that’s home to an
ardent spiritual group devoted to self-help guru Paul
Bentzen and his enigmatic wife Kali. But when Paul
mysteriously dies, his entire estate—including
Xanadu—is left not to Kali, but to his estranged niece
Sveta.
Shocked and confused, Sveta travels from New York City to
Mexico to pay her respects. At first, Xanadu seems like a
secluded paradise with its tumbling gardens, beautiful
people, and transcendent vibe. But soon the mystical
façade wears thin, revealing a group of brainwashed
members drunk on promises of an impossible utopia, guided by
a disturbing belief system and a charismatic, dangerously
capable leader.
As the sinister forces surrounding Sveta become apparent,
she realizes, too late, she can’t escape. Frantic and
terrified, she discovers her only chance of survival is to
put her confidence in the very person she trusts the
least.
