SYNOPSIS
  • A group of people are on a private island in Greece, and someone is murdered. Who was killed? Why were they killed? Who murdered them? 

MY THOUGHTS
  • This is my least favorite so far of the three books by this author.
  • I really hated the narration style, where often times, the narrator is addressing the readers directly. 
  • The flow & pacing was uneven.
  • Lots of unlikable characters.
  • Atmospheric setting.
  • Felt like a soap opera. 
  • Ending was mehhh.

TL;DR: ⭐️⭐️⭐️atmospheric read, but overall, just meh. Odd narration style.

Thanks to Celadon Books and Netgalley for this digital ARC in exchange for an honest review. This book is out now.
