The Day After the Party: A totally gripping page-turner
The perfect birthday or the perfect nightmare?
Katelyn smiles around at her husband and friends, gathered to celebrate her thirty-sixth birthday in their beautiful home decorated with fairy lights. But the next day Katelyn wakes up shaken and terrified in a hospital bed…
She doesn’t remember the sweet taste of birthday cake icing, or how angry her best friend was at midnight, or the terrible things her husband said. She doesn’t remember the party at all.
When she asks her husband what happened the night of the party he says ‘nothing’. But her blood runs cold at the way his voice lilts slightly. The way it always does when he is lying.
Did someone at the party harm her?
What is her husband hiding?
Or did Katelyn herself do something terrible?
Only one thing is certain. Nobody can be trusted. And if Katelyn’s memories of the party do come back, it will tear them all apart…
This brilliantly addictive read about dark secrets our loved ones keep from us is perfect for fans of Liane Moriarty and Sally Hepworth.

Nicole Trope went to university to study Law but realised the error of her ways when she did very badly on her first law essay because-as her professor pointed out- 'It's not meant to be a story.' She studied teaching instead and used her holidays to work on her writing career and complete a Masters' degree in Children's Literature.
The idea for her first published novel, The Boy under the Table, was so scary that it took a year for her to find the courage to write the emotional story. She went on to publish a further five novels in Australia before joining Bookouture in 2019. She is a USA Today and Amazon bestseller in the USA, UK, AUS and CAN.
She lives in Sydney with her husband and three children.

Review By Heidi Lynn’s Book Reviews
First, I want to thank Nicole Trope, Bookouture and NetGalley for providing me with this book so I can bring you this review!
WOW!!!! Reading The Day After The Party was like watching a prime time soap opera in my mind!! Nicole Trope really packed on the drama thick with this one! It is not your average psychological thriller, it is way more dark and twisted.
I can’t imagine what Katelyn was going through emotionally, mentally and even physically waking up in an unknown location with no memory of anything that had happened at the party! Like Katelyn I too needed to know what happened at the party!
What I loved most about this book was the education Nicole gave to her readers about transient global amnesia. I found the topic very interesting and how it played a role in The Day After The Party.
So many of these characters rubbed me the wrong way to the point that I was screaming at my Kindle! But with every book there is someone you don’t care for and others you like. My favorites were Harper, Katelyn and Toby!
