She did it again! What a captivating story!
Best friends Eleanor, Michaela and Clio rent a Loch House for a couple days of holidays. It's all innocent... until it isn't! Looks like Michaela had a secret motive to bring her besties to the Scottish Loch. The events turn badly when the woman disappears and neither Clio nor Eleanor can find any trace of her.
In a small village it's difficult to find any answers, the locals are cautious of the strangers and even the police isn't helpful... it turns out that there's a dark past following the girls. Two timelines of the past and the present makes everything even more compelling.
I truly enjoyed the stories of all the characters, the main mystery and how it all worked out. It's chilly, tense and it was difficult to stop reading! It definitely had the vibes similar to The Lighthouse which was one of my favourite books of the last year.
I can't wait to see what Fran comes up with next!
