A family gathers to celebrate their matriarch's 80th birthday. As they gather at Nana's house, the atmosphere is strained at best. A lot stands between them -- Secrets. Lies. Cruelties. All those things that tear dysfunctional families apart. But they are all stuck there together for hours because access to the mainland is completely cut off once the tide comes in.
And then someone starts killing them off. One by one. Leaving macabre messages behind.
I listened to the audio book version of this story, and loved every minute of it! This tale is definitely inspired by And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie. But, there is enough different and surprising aspects about Alice Feeney's take on the isolated who-dunnit style tale that I found myself completely lost in the story.
The audio book is just shy of 11 hours long and is narrated by Stephanie Racine. She does an excellent job of voice acting and brings the story to life!
This was an enjoyable and suspenseful story. I'm definitely going to read more by this author!
