One Of Us

One of Us By Elizabeth Day Pre-Order February 24th 2026

From bestselling author Elizabeth Day comes One of Us, a razor-sharp, darkly comic ensemble drama that exposes the hidden power struggles, secrets, and hypocrisies of Britain’s elite.

When Fliss Fitzmaurice, the eccentric daughter of a powerful political dynasty, is found dead on a Balinese beach, what appears to be a tragic accident quickly sparks suspicion among those entangled in her family’s web of influence. Her brother Ben, next in line for Prime Minister, seeks to minimize the fallout, while old friend Martin re-enters the orbit seeking revenge and validation. Meanwhile, Ben’s wife Serena reckons with the gilded cage of her privileged life, and their daughter Cosima challenges the family legacy as a passionate environmental activist.

Through a kaleidoscope of ambition, loyalty, and betrayal, Elizabeth Day explores the complex intersection of family, wealth, and power. With its biting wit, layered characters, and keen social insight, One of Us is perfect for fans of Succession, The Nest, and The Wedding Party—a high-stakes, irresistible drama about who we trust, who we envy, and who we ultimately become.
