I did find it a bit predictable however, and I managed to guess most of the links between the people on the island before they happened. The reason for the half star though is that I honestly didn’t know who the murderer was until the last few pages, I think Foley did a fantastic job at that as well as picking up the pace.

BUT
I loved this book so much - I swallowed this thing whole.
The characters absolutely made it for me. Loved and hated all of them.
Every twist and turn was so juicy, this may be my new favourite thriller/murder mystery.
Don't mind me, just off to read everything else this author has ever written.
