I only have one word for this book…WOW

The story starts with two newlyweds, Liam and Laura spending their honeymoon in a remote Scottish island all by themselves–a cottage and a castle that was ruined by a fire years ago. Yet what seemingly a quiet honeymoon soon turned to a nightmare when both of them realized that someone else is also in this remote island with them. And there’s a dark forbidding history lurking in the island…

Let’s start with the plot–the plot of the story was great! Intriguing, engaging and for a moment, I thought I was reading a horror story–I had the feeling of horror when I was reading the book and felt like watching a horror movie! The story was intense, the author did a good job hooking the reader into the story that for a moment, I simply couldn’t put the book down as I was so hooked into the book! Then towards the ending, the story got more and more intense with the moments of OMG moments and then comes the most unexpected and twisted ending that I didn’t even see it coming! Really, the ending was so good and unexpected! I did not see that twist coming in the end.

The story was also short, fast paced and quick to read, and has all the qualities of a good thriller book I usually would find in a good thriller! This author did not disappoint me and I am looking forward to read more of her books!

Overall, this book gave me a rollercoaster horror ride that kept me awake at night to finish the book–unputdownable and fast paced thriller with a twisted unexpected ending you didn’t expect–worth five stars!

Many thanks to Netgalley and Avon publishers for the ARC. The book is based on my honest opinion only.
