I always love an audio-book with a British narrator! I think that rates an extra star for me every time! Aside from that, I really enjoyed this book. It was a story reminiscent of And Then There Were None, which is almost a surefire way to win my heart. Although the characters here are not picked off one by one, they are all in a remote location and in danger with a mysterious killer who is probably one of them. The red herrings are believable and the characters are distinct enough that you have no problems following the action. I found myself hooked toward the end and didn't want to stop listening which is always a good sign.

Fast read that did hold my attention but the payoff wasnt worth it and a little too far fetched or not believable enough

I really enjoyed this one. It was, once again, a good mystery/thriller/suspense/who dun-it.

I have decided that I am the worlds worst at solving mysteries. I had no idea until the very end how this was going to turn out.
