Description
It was a holiday she would never let them forget ...
'She had it coming. So had the others.'
In 2007, four friends returned home from a week in Ibiza with secrets to keep. When they agreed never to contact each other again, all traces of their holiday were erased. Or so they thought.
Now, almost seventeen years after that trip, Anna's sister Kim is still picking up the pieces after Anna abandoned her life without warning. Kim is sure that Anna's unexplained departure had something to do with her visit to Ibiza. And when a photo from the trip surfaces unexpectedly, she finally has some clues to start looking into what happened to her sister.
Julia, Cora and Faye are forced to come together when they realise someone might be looking into the past. But how far will they go to bury the truth? And what's to stop one of them from letting a 'friend' take the fall, in order to save herself?

I love books such as this one.. They are the perfect holiday read.
Missing girls mystery and a Ibiza setting make this a suspenseful and intriguing read.
I loved the girls the sunshine and most if all how the story unfolded. I was kept in suspense and had no idea what would happen come the end.
I was not disappointed and this book satisfied my need as a reader

A dark Irish mystery about a young woman who disappears, supposedly relocating to London and the quest of her sister to find her and work out what has happened.
One day Anna leaves her sister, Kim and her young son Sean, in order to start a new life in London. All Kim ever gets is the odd Christmas card, no phone calls or visits. Sean misses his mother terribly and Kim has to bring him up alone as they have no other family.
15 years go by and Kim sees a clue to Anna’s whereabouts online. She disappeared after a holiday to Ibiza when something dreadful happened, something that she would never talk about and there is a reference to that period on Facebook when someone posts a photo.
Trying to track down Anna’s friends from that holiday proves very difficult and it soon becomes clear they don’t want to be found.
This is a dark mystery and not a light hearted chicklit ’ holiday story. No one is as they seem and to be frank most of the characters are pretty unpleasant apart from Kim, Sean and Daniel.
Cora seems to be the worst, followed by Faye and Julia. All three have something to hide and this is gradually revealed as the book progresses.
I found the novel quite dark although it was definitely gripping and made me want to turn the pages to find out how it all would end.
It is definitely a book I would recommend to lovers of psychological noir fiction.
Thanks to NetGalley and the publishers for my advance copy.

lots of people in life have gray areas about them. lots of people arent who we think they are or choose to have in our life. not all actions can be explained. and sometimes things happen that change everything.
this is a book a group of friends that werent always the nicest or morally good. and clearly there was something that occurred on holiday that left a deep mark. so much so that one of the friends, on her return home cuts all ties with the friends. but the terrible thing is she also cuts ties with her sister and even her own son. she leaves without a trace. only the odd card shows her sister she is still alive.
her sister took on the son, there was after all noone else. but she has never given up the hope or search. then one day a posted picture online gives her a clue. a picture from the girls holiday in Ibiza all those years ago. and so starts her search. she is determined that 15 years later she will finally find the answers. but she might regret her decision to dig deeper. as what comes next is a dark web of secrets, lies, and it could get worse than she ever imagined.
this was a brilliant thriller. it packed such a punch. the twists i never saw coming which is another excellent tick box for me that elevates this novel even higher.
i recommended this book to anyone. its top tier thriller work.

Thanks to NetGalley, I was privileged to be an ARC reader for this book and am giving my honest review in exchange for the advanced copy
The Girls Trip is a dark Irish thriller that takes you on the journey of a missing woman, a trip to Ibiza in 2007, unrequited love, and a wedding gone wrong. Dark secrets from a trip in Ibiza lead to a girl cutting all ties with the other girls from the trip and her family when she gets back. 15 years go by without the girl coming home, but sending cards every Christmas. After a picture from that Ibiza trip is found in an online obituary, the older sister of the missing girl decides to dig into what actually happened in Ibiza that made her sister cut all ties and leave her son behind. What Kim finds is a dark web of lies and secrets that she couldn’t have ever imagined.
I binged this book over the weekend and couldn’t put it down. I couldn’t have predicted most of the twists and turns of the story which makes it a great thriller. I loved that all of the characters from Ibiza were morally gray so you couldn’t really root for anyone but at the same time you wanted to find everything out and get closure. I think if a book is written well (which this one definitely was), it can make you feel something for even the worst situation and worst characters.

Zoë Miller’s The Girls’ Trip is the perfect blend of suspense, mystery, and psychological drama. From the very first page, I was hooked on the intrigue surrounding Anna’s disappearance and the dark secrets buried in her past.
The story unfolds beautifully, jumping between past and present as Kim digs into what really happened in Ibiza all those years ago. The friendships between Julia, Cora, Faye, and Anna are layered with tension, guilt, and hidden betrayals, making every chapter feel like peeling back another layer of a long-buried secret.
I loved the way the suspense builds—every time I thought I had figured it out, another twist came along that made me question everything. The characters are flawed but compelling, and their shifting loyalties kept me second-guessing their motives right until the shocking conclusion.
If you love gripping psychological thrillers with eerie atmospheres and complex female friendships, The Girls’ Trip is a must-read. It’s a book that will keep you up late, racing through the pages to uncover the truth. Highly recommend!

Loved this one, I was hooked from the start, and couldn't predict the end. A must on your TBR.
A good one to keep you on the edge of your seat.

The girls trip’ is a super gripping psychological thriller, a bit racy, extremely suspenseful and just insanely good!!
For sure it took a couple of chapters to get me hooked, but thereafter I really couldn’t put it down.
The story starts with a woman, Kim, searching for her sister, Anna, who, in a move that was wholly out of character, took off for London 15years previously with only the occasional Christmas card to maintain contact. Kim is keen for contact and her pursuit of Anna leads her to track down a group of friends Anna met on holiday before her departure, feeling Anna’s relocation was related to this holiday in some way.
As the story progresses we discover the salacious details of what went down on the fated holidays as well as some pretty crazy repercussions!
Well written, really interesting characters and with a plot that is utterly mind blowing this is one book that I can’t recommend highly enough!
My thanks to NetGalley, author and publisher for the opportunity to review this book in exchange for an advance copy.
