When Georgia rents her country home for the month of August, it’s off to the relaxing Connecticut shore for her; her husband, Tom; and their young daughter. It’s just what they need to ease family tensions and reconnect. All that’s left to do is leave behind their house keys—to a stranger. For Anna, Georgia and Tom’s house in the cool woodlands is a dream break from the oppressive heat of a New York City summer—and from an increasingly ill-fated relationship with her lover. A month apart and Anna can clear her head and reassess her future. She’s found the perfect place to do it.

It’s so kind of our neighbours to throw this party welcoming us to our new home. My husband and I finally moved to the right place. A happy, safe street where nobody knows about my mistakes. But I soon learn their smiling faces hide even deadlier secrets… As I take in the little plates of sandwiches arranged over checked tablecloths, the lavish cocktails, and children playing, I finally feel happy in my new home with Owen. I love hearing the gossip from the local families; the whispers about which wives I should avoid, and which husbands sneak out at night.

Going into fancy hotels. Standing at a window, his arms around her, her head on his shoulder…

It’s only been a week, but the bright little faces at the picture-perfect school I’ve stepped into have captured my heart. Their big doe eyes, their paint-covered fingers and clinging hugs.

Story
My heart pounds as I take in the headline: ‘Missing girl believed kidnapped’. Underneath is a photo of my beautiful daughter Mia, her gap-toothed grin unmistakable. But Mia is safe beside me, snuggled up on the sofa. Who has taken a photo of her, and put it on the news? And what message are they trying to send me…? I run to the window of our little house–the cosy, homely place my husband Mark and I bought so Mia could have everything I didn’t as a child–and pull the curtains tightly shut, hiding us from sight as terror courses through my body.
Publisher's Summary
Luxury villas on hot white sand, views for miles over turquoise water.
Flawless hostess Penny gathers guests to an island for her husband’s birthday celebrations.
But she soon regrets inviting self-obsessed Eloise…
When a child vanishes on the night of the party, their perfect island weekend is ripped apart. Even paradise harbours murky secrets…
Has he been taken? Has he drowned?
In the panic to find any trace, Penny casts about for someone to blame—even if that person is her own daughter, Rosie. Even clear waters descend to pitch black…
But it’s not the first time Rosie’s been attacked by her mother. And it’s not the first time she’s turned to Eloise for support.
As the sun beats down and dark secrets rise to the surface, can they find the missing child before it’s too late—or will this sudden disappearance endanger them all? …and someone among them knows the whole shocking truth

Will The Rip be a worthy force?
The story seemed like it might have the power to intrigue me...
However, the main characters lacked redeeming qualities. Performed well, it was worth a listen, but I was left unsatisfied, seemed to me the further into the plot we ventured, the less I liked the main characters. I get the need to write 'flawed' protagonists, but flaws should be qualities that the reader may empathise with. Maybe the author was going for 'edgy', I don't know, but I would not want to be friends with either of the leading ladies... Just as I felt I could get on board with some of their behaviours, forgive some misgivings, something else would occur or come to light, and I was ... No, just no - that's not excusable or acceptable.
I'll make sure to read reviews before I purchase another by this author.

Terrible book.
It is rare that the characters in a book have no redeeming features but this one achieved it. I found it an awful story with equally awful characters.

Addictive
This was one of those stories you just had to listen until the end - Penny’s character became very wearing at times and l found it very repetitive, the narration of this character was quite annoying at times. Other than that the story line was gripping. An enjoyable listen with a very flawed female main cast - would definitely listen or read more from Holly Craig

Overall pretty good
I enjoyed and it had me hooked, however, I found Eloise’s motivation to not go to the police flimsy and unbelievable
Aside from that good read and great to have a shout out to the beautiful Rottnest Island

A fast read
Such a fast read/listen. Especially because the chapters flip between 2 women, Penny and Eloise and the time. One of those books you have to keep going and finish right away. Well done!

Good Aussie suspense
Really enjoyable for the most part-some of Penny’s internal dialogue became tiresome to listen to, possibly due to the narrators voice for her in the headspace she was in. Otherwise well narrated and a good compelling listen.
