Forty-two Euros in her bank account. One high-stakes wedding. And a Social Media NDA that ensures no one will hear the screams.
The Wedding Guests is a razor-sharp contemporary dark comedy and social satire that deconstructs the brutal artifice of the elite. Set over forty-eight claustrophobic hours in rural County Wicklow, it's a biting exploration of what happens when the performance of perfection finally shatters under the weight of its own lies.
Caoimhe is a disgraced outsider with no return ticket and nothing left to lose. She's the only person who knows the manic-depressive bride is planning to vanish before the reception ends. In a world of calculated alliances and ruthless social gatekeepers, Caoimhe is the only one holding the truth-and she's broke enough to use it.
The mother-in-law is financing a business merger disguised as a marriage.
The groom is hiding behind a wall of oblivious privilege.
A charming nihilist is waiting to light the match.
And the social media blackout means anything can happen behind closed doors.
One wrong word means social ruin. One right move means total, messy liberation. But as the champagne flows and the masks slip, Caoimhe must decide if she's going to survive the weekend or burn the entire estate to the ground.
A fast-paced, cynical, and wickedly funny novel filled with toxic prestige, desperate lies, and the glorious chaos of a life unraveled.
Step inside the ceremony. Sign the NDA. Buy The Wedding Guests and join the ruin today.
