Publisher's summary

*The Sunday Times No.1 bestseller*

EVERYONE’S INVITED.

EVERYONE’S A SUSPECT.

AND EVERYONE’S TALKING ABOUT IT.

In a remote hunting lodge, deep in the Scottish wilderness, old friends gather for New Year.

The beautiful one
The golden couple
The volatile one
The new parents
The quiet one
The city boy
The outsider

The victim.

Not an accident – a murder among friends.

Best audio book I’ve listened to

I’ve listened to quite a few audio books. This, by far, was the best performance of a great story. Thank you.

Great audio book!!

Loved the short chapters describing each character in the book. A good plot of very different personalities.

Predictable all round

Murder Mystery that isn’t that mysterious. Overall story and outcome too predictable for my liking. Holding off on the revealing of the victims name for a while didn’t exactly make it more of a thrilling listen. Characters are flat and too cliché, as is the entire story. Not sure if I am mad about the voices and the Scottish accent either. As a whole entire story and especially the ending leaves me feeling a little empty and flat.

Great performances, but story was a let down

The plot was very generic. Poor girl envies rich popular girl. Shallow characters. Great performances made it listenable.

Great performance, familiar story

Excellent performances from the cast, elevating some mildly interesting characters. Main gripe is that the largely predictable story wraps itself up hurriedly with an attempted gut punch, which unfortunately doesn't make sense if you think about it for even a moment.

Enjoyable

Unforeseeable twist, interesting, fun characters. So much can be revealed about people in such a short space of time.
