The Murder Game by Rachel Abbott

3.0

Jemma and Matt were invited to the intimate wedding of Lucas and Nina but it ended in Alex's apparent suicide. One year on they reluctantly return as Lucas invites them to take part in The Murder Game to honour the one year anniversary. DS Stephanie King investigates the apparent suicide and a year later is brought back as a woman has went missing and was last seen at Polskirrin.

This was a decent thriller that was easily and quickly read, with brilliant group dynamics that made the reader question who had the motive to kill Alex, due to them all being extremely unlikeable it could have been anyone however about halfway through I had figured it out. The setting was brilliant for this book and it reminded me of Agatha Christie and Lucy Foley. There were plenty twists to keep the reader intrigued with blackmail, abductions and family feuds.
