5.0
An isolated location, creepy history with murders in the background. What can go wrong?
Detective Elin is back to investigate the crimes. I love how she acknowledges her limitations, yet she tries her best to solve the case.
A family group arrives on the island, and pretty quickly things get nasty. Secrets and betrayal come to life, when one person after another disappears.
The book is really well-ploted, it's quite dark and tense. A fast-paced story which makes you want to continue until you find out what is really going on.
I liked The Sanatorium, and I think The Retreat was even better. I can't wait what else the author brings to us!
