About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
Get ready to meet Rebekah.
Sunday Times best-selling author Tim Weaver is back with his first standalone.
Imagine you don't know your own darkest secret. But someone else does - and now they want you dead....
Exhausted single mother Rebekah Murphy leaves her daughters with a friend in the city to accompany her brother on a work assignment on a picturesque island. An hour after arriving, her and her brother are attacked.
He vanishes, she's left for dead and, by the time she makes it back to safety, it's already too late: the island has closed for the season - and it'll be seven months before anyone returns.
But even with her brother missing, even with no boats, phones or people, Rebekah will soon realise that finding a way back to the mainland is only the start of her nightmare.
Because someone is waiting for her - and they don't want her to make it home alive.

I love Tim Weaver’s books. I’ve purchased them all and never regret recommending them. I was thrilled to see a new book released.
Now that I’ve made it to the end, my disappointment is palpable.
This book I can’t recommend. It was only out of bloody mindedness that I finished it. For the first two thirds of the book I was wishing the main character would hurry up and die so the book would end faster. Spoiler alert: she doesn’t die.
As for the big reveal; a total anticlimax, sigh. Although, the second to last chapter cheered me up so there’s that.
I personally think the world would benefit from an endless stream of Raker novels.
It’s the author’s prerogative to write whatever he wants so I guess he wanted to write this novel. I just didn’t like the incessant whining and vagueness of the mc. For a Dr her problem solving skills were frustratingly glacial paced. Definitely not someone you’d want to have on your zombie apocalypse team. Canon fodder.
Narration was excellent. Perfectly characterized and articulated.
Sorry Tim Weaver. I just can’t 5 star this book.
Long. Interminably long.
