Summary

One hen weekend, seven secrets… but only one worth killing for.

Jen's hen party is going to be out of control…

She's rented a luxury getaway on its own private island. The helicopter won't be back for seventy-two hours. They are alone. They think.

As well as Jen, there's the pop diva and the estranged ex-bandmate, the tennis pro and the fashion guru, the embittered ex-sister-in-law and the mouthy future sister-in-law.

It's a combustible cocktail, one that takes little time to ignite, and in the midst of the drunken chaos, one of them disappears. Then a message tells them that unless someone confesses her terrible secret to the others, their missing friend will be killed.

Problem is, everybody has a secret. And nobody wants to tell.

Chris's voice is missing from this book, it feels like an attempt to produce a modern Agatha Christie work. It's flat an uninspiring compared to Chris's earlier work. I couldn't warm to it at all and wondered where that creative genius had gone. Disappointing.

The narrator is so dreary. Otherwise it could be an interesting story. Perhaps.
I do wish the narrators learn to sound interesting

Shame about the narrator
