  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot

4.5

A mystery in which a family with a plethora of dark secrets is stuck on an island house where they are being killed off one by one. As secrets are revealed, the truths about the family starts to come to life and the flaws of the characters are shoved into the light evoking absolutely no sympathy as they begin to die. The reveal of the murderer is shocking and subverts the general standard of a murder mystery although one of the plot lines revealed in the conclusion was predictable, it wasn’t a disappointment in the end and there was a sense of sympathy and sadness to the finality of the book.
