Untamed Shore
by Silvia Moreno-Garcia
(Disclaimer: I received this book from Netgalley. This has not impacted my review which is unbiased and honest.)
Untamed Shore is a character driven story with a rich atmosphere. Viridiana dreams of romance, of staring in her story instead of merely staying in the same town forever. Desperate to escape the path before her, her introduction to three tourists changes her life forever. They not only offer her glamor and a chance to witness a whole new life, but also secrets, intrigue, and danger. I was extremely interested in the promises of thriller, but Untamed Shore is more of a character driven mystery.
What you might expect of a thriller is delivered late in Untamed Shore. Beforehand, there is a subtle and ominous sense of danger. Additionally, Untamed Shore is more focused on Viridiana and how she reacts to the mystery element, not one of those stories where the intrigue takes over. We are not only asked where Viridiana's loyalty lies, but also what she will do survive. The image of sharks haunts Untamed Shore, asking what Viridiana's role in her own story is.
