This book flew by as fast as The Chain did. I found this book as compelling as the book by this author but it felt like there were way fewer plot holes and leaps of logic. Heather is a compelling protagonist and while this story is old the action and tension are so good it doesn’t matter.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
Heather Baxter is a new wife to Tom and we'll to do surgeon, and also the new stepmother to his two kids Olivia and Owen. During a conference trip to Australia Heather tries to win over her step kids by having their father pay out the ass to go to a private island see some Australian wildlife. The Baxter family along with a Dutch couple head to this island in hopes for some good photos. Instead they are hunted down after an accident. Now Heather must use all her survival skills to get off the island and protect her new family. That being said, if I was Heather I would have bitch slapped both those fucking kids so hard they forgot their names. Also be warned the audio book had subtle sound effects.
