Descriptions of the island were very detailed but, ultimately, too repetitive. Plus I didn’t really grow to root for any of the characters. But the vivid (intense) atmosphere of this book was great!
Moderate: Death of parent, Murder, Terminal illness, Suicidal thoughts, Alcohol, Death, Grief, and Injury/Injury detail
Minor: Infidelity, Sexual assault, Infertility, Injury/Injury detail, Miscarriage, and Sexual content

Me mantuvo enganchadisima. La historia está muy bien descrita, el suspenso, todas las teorías que cree en mi cabeza, la angustia que sentí por Erin, la manera en que la forma de escribir de la autora me hizo empatizar mucho con los sentimientos de Erin al punto que me hizo llorar.
Este es un misterio diferente, sin de esos plot Twist que cambian todo, en parte si pero lo mejor no es el plot Twist sino todo el desarrollo de la historia.
Spoiler
No le pongo 5 estrellas porque la decisión final de Erin aunque en parte la entiendo, me deja una desazón. Después de todo lo que pasó, no aceptar a su hermana. Y también la decisión de Lori de mantenerse en el anonimato.

It was not bad - entertaining and well written. Unfortunately I was very disappointed with how it all panned out!

Wow that was an amazing ride! It has mystery, suspense, desert island survival, emotions... Everything worked! Such a page turner, I now have to read every book by Lucy Clarke!
