The Retreat

Heartbroken after losing her daughter and husband in a tragic accident, Julia opens her home as a writer's retreat. But eerie things start happening after the guests arrive. Julia, believes her daughter is just missing, believes the “citings” are Lily her missing daughter. But, not everyone else is so easily convinced. This is my second book I have read by this author and I did enjoy it. I will read more.

A truly brilliant book that keeps you on the edge of your seat like all proper thriller mysteries should!

This book is, without a doubt, one of the most gripping books I've ever read. Never before, after every chapter, have I gone “cor this is good!” And want to tell everybody around me why I'm so ready for the next chapter.

The characters are believable, lovable and in-depth. The story, as aforementioned, is unbelievably gripping and sometimes quite spooky. The book is simply written so means you can read it at a break–kneck pace. I would HIGHLY recommend for any mystery/who dunnit lovers!

Maybe closer to 3.5 because I LOVED the end.

But the pacing was off and it dragged for a whileee.
