AN ELLE AND CRIMEREADS BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR

When Abby steps foot on Isla Colel, she isn’t sure what—if anything—she’ll find. She only knows that she needs to see the place where her fiancée, Eszter, died to try and make sense of the tragic accident.

The island is nothing like Abby expected: Though it was once a bustling tourist hub, a hurricane has left it a shell of its former self, with only a handful of residents remaining. Even the once-daily ferry to the mainland now runs every week or so.

There, Abby befriends an alluring group of expats, but her sense of unease surges when one of them says he knows the truth about Eszter’s final days. Before he can tell her more, though, he vanishes from the island. Hours turn to days with no sign of him, and the others are chillingly cavalier about his disappearance.

As her quest for the truth unearths dark secrets, shady pasts, and a web of lies, Abby grows more determined than ever to find out what happened to the love of her life. And the deeper she gets in the close-knit expat community, the more she suspects that one of them is Eszter’s killer—and will do anything to keep the truth buried. But will Abby discover who it is before she becomes the island’s next victim?

Highly recommend to anyone!

This novel kept me guessing at every turn. I love mysteries and usually spoil it for others as I quickly outline the suspects and solve the puzzle. I did not expect what I got and I was speechless when it all unfolded!

Good but took awhile to reel in the actual story

It was a good book but took a long time to build the basic storyline. The first few hours of listening could have easily been abbreviated although I do appreciate the author's use of detail in general. The story seemed to pick up 2/3 the way through and then the epilogue actually clarified the questions that essentially were the entire book.

Slow and boring

I love Andrea typically but this one was a big miss for me Sadly enough.

Fun read

Main character is a bit whiny and self absorbed. Didn’t love end - it should have tied in to the main character.

Captivating!

The book was wonderful and had me enthralled all the way through! A perfect mystery novel with all kinds of great twists and turns!
