Summary

When a dream trip becomes your worst nightmare...

You’ve been excited about this getaway for months–at last, a chance to reconnect with your husband at a secluded island resort. But when he unexpectedly calls you from the beach, you hear the urgency in his voice. Something is very wrong.

The beautiful waitress from the restaurant last night has been found lying dead in the sand. And the police want to question your husband about it.

Sure, you saw him glance at her over dinner a few times, but you know he didn’t have anything to do with the poor girl’s death. So why is he asking you to lie to the police that he was with you all night? And where did he go in those missing hours?

When he returns to your beautiful sea-view suite, things get heated and he accuses you of being jealous, just like he always does. Yes, the waitress was overly flirtatious with your husband, but you didn’t actually wish her any harm. Not really.

Can you trust the man you married...or are you the one who can’t be trusted?

Perfect for fans of Gone Girl, The Hunting Party, and The Girl on the Train.

Confusing and too long

The story switches back and forth between the characters so often it’s really hard to keep track of who’s who and who’s married to whom.
The story isn’t terrible but it isn’t great either a lot could have been left out and none of the characters are likeable. The big twist was obvious

Twists and turns

I’ve listened to several Sue Watson thrillers. This one is superbly written. You will never guess the ending. I just couldn’t stop listening.

Kept me listening *trigger warning*

Binge listened to this and enjoyed the twists and turns, I do wish the blurb would give a trigger warning - there are details descriptions of rape and sexual assault of a child. Thank

One of her best!

Throughly enjoyed this book, one of her best, I binged it over two days. No part of it dragged for me, which I find is often the case these days, it was an easy listen, which I think is a real mark of a talented author. I enjoyed the setting, the premise and the interaction between the women and the dynamics of the three couples involved. Outstanding narration from the incredibly talented Tamsin Kennard as always. Loved it ❤️
