Publisher's summary

The gripping new thriller from the Sunday Times bestseller!

The perfect escape, or the perfect trap?

When a select group of influencers and journalists receive an exclusive invitation to a luxury resort in the Maldives, it seems like the ultimate press trip.

But when the island is cut off during a storm and people start dying, it looks like someone has murder in mind.

Are the guests really who they seem to be, or does each one of them have a secret to hide?

Something they would kill for?

Lose yourself in the latest twisty page-turner from the queen of glamorous crime, Catherine Cooper.

Easy listening

Enjoyed the way the story weaves together, liked the description of characters and island. Never been to the Maldives but sounds amazing - a nice escape from reality to listen to

Boring travelogue disguised as a mystery

The first half of the book dwells on the resort, its promised activities, food preparation, and not much about the personalities of the characters. When the accidents and finally actual murders occur its too little too late, Heather Long is the only good thing about this audible book. Not sure I would recommend it at a sale price. I have listened to other Catherine Cooper audible books, This is the first one I really did not enjoy.
