Summary
An all-consuming tale of psychological suspense with a spectacular twist, inspired by Agatha Christie’s And Then There Were None
From Alice Feeney, the internationally bestselling author of His and Hers, soon to be a major TV series produced by Jessica Chastain.
'Clever, compelling, confounding and absolutely delicious' – Lisa Jewell, bestselling author of None of This is True
'I devoured this in record time because I had to know what happened next. Alice Feeney is one of my absolute favourites' – Samantha Downing, author of My Lovely Wife
Isolated on their private island in Cornwall, the Darker family have come together for the first time in over a decade. When the tide comes in, they'll be cut off from the rest of the world for eight hours. When the tide goes back out, nothing will ever be the same again. Nothing – because one of the family is a killer...
As the leaves of autumn fall, Daisy Darker arrives at her grandmother’s house for eightieth birthday celebrations. Seaglass, the Darker’s ancestral home, is a crumbling Cornish house perched upon its own tiny private island.
Every member of the family has their secrets. Nana, alone for so long. Daisy's absent father, Frank. Her cold-hearted mother, Nancy. Her siblings, Rose and Lily, and her niece, Trixie, full of questions and without a father of her own. Daisy has never had an easy relationship with her family, but some secrets are much darker than others. This will be a gathering that some of them won't remember.
'I was on the edge of my seat the whole time' – Taylor Jenkins Reid, author of Daisy Jones and the Six
Critic reviews
"Wow! Echoes of Christie's And Then There Were None but turned into something wonderfully original and wrapped in a genuinely creepy dysfunctional family fairy tale of a novel, this takes Feeney to the next level. Loved it!" (Sarah Pinborough, author of number one best-selling Behind Her Eyes)
"Clever, sinister, claustrophobic, beguiling and utterly compelling. I was totally hooked from the first sentence." (Peter James)
"So many nasty secrets. And that's before the bodies start to pile up! I've always been an Alice Feeney fan—but I think she's outdone herself with this startling murderfest!" (R.L. Stine)

Brilliant!
Loved this book and the audiobook was narrated brilliantly. Such a twisty turning tale that had my attention all the way to the end - although I really didn’t want it to end at all.

I didn’t see that one coming!
I love the twist at the end! I always guess the twists in every book but not this one! However I’m afraid I just couldn’t get in it. I’m so disappointed as it’s the only Alice Feeney book I couldn’t get my teeth into.
❤️Alice Feeney still remains one of my top 3 authors ❤️

Shockingly surprising
I read/listened to this book within one very long day, starting on a late Saturday morning, and finishing it in the very early hours of Sunday, 4am. It is a heart-breaking story about a heart-broken girl. Each chapter unveils slowly more and more of the so-well-named Darker family’s secrets, reaching a few consecutive shocking and unexpected final twists. The story is like a brewing storm which develops into raging, crashing swirl of thunders, right above our heads. Beautiful language, laconic but to the point. Well read.

more than expected!!
I have listened to hundreds of books and this is my first review, so bear with me and my dyslexia!!
I wasn't sure after reading the reviews but I gave it a go. I'm so glad I did! the book is much more than it first appears to be. I highly recommend for anyone that loves a mystery and hates working it out half way threw.
I can't wait for the next book.
