Initially it looks like a tragic accident, but it transpires that the victim shouldn’t have even been there. And then it’s followed by a diving accident.
There’s loads of mystery, action and secrets on the island, and Detective Elin Walker is the one to solve the crimes.
I felt that Elin was much more together and confident than she was in The Sanitorium, which I think is the reason for her boyfriend Will’s behaviour (honestly, it’s not great behaviour 🤷🏼♀️).
I loved how the secrets were slowly revealed - lots of deep intakes of breath on my part!
Absolutely NOT somewhere I’d want to be going on holiday, but a fabulous read!
