I’m feeling 3.5 and rounding up. I guessed some of the twists and others surprised me. I’m left with some questions. 

-Was he going crazy or were they actually drugging him? Or both?
-Why didn’t he ever try to set up some kind of lock for his cabin? If someone else had the key but things kept going missing or reappearing he could have tried to rig something else up.
-Just a random thought, I thought the reason dining behind him pushing his wife over the edge of the cliff was ridiculous. But I guess people have done crazier things for less.
-Why would they bury him alive? What happened to them needing to keep him alive to fund their island? I guess they’re just going to gamble on a new author later if necessary?
