Summary

Luxury villas on hot white sand, views for miles over turquoise water.
Flawless hostess Penny gathers guests to an island for her husband’s birthday celebrations.
But she soon regrets inviting self-obsessed Eloise…

When a child vanishes on the night of the party, their perfect island weekend is ripped apart. Even paradise harbours murky secrets…
Has he been taken? Has he drowned?

In the panic to find any trace, Penny casts about for someone to blame—even if that person is her own daughter, Rosie. Even clear waters descend to pitch black…

But it’s not the first time Rosie’s been attacked by her mother. And it’s not the first time she’s turned to Eloise for support.

As the sun beats down and dark secrets rise to the surface, can they find the missing child before it’s too late—or will this sudden disappearance endanger them all? …and someone among them knows the whole shocking truth

Doesn’t grab you sadly

Had quite high hopes but the story and performance aren’t gripping unfortunately. Found myself not concentrating on it a few times.

Excellent Book. Hard to stop listening

Excellent story. Very twisty and interesting all the way to the end. I don’t usually go for these books but the story line was exceptional

Slow start

Very slow story line up until missing child. Narrator was monosyllabic - not enjoyable to listen to.

Good characterisations and observations of human behaviour

Was expecting more from this story, was waiting for a twist! Slow burner and I enjoyed the deep insights into the characters. Very well narrated.

Predictable and dull

Struggled to listen to this one. The narration/production is flat and unclear. The story isn’t up to much - I didn’t like the characters at all.
