Following a serious accident, Anna is plagued by guilt and decides to escape by taking a job in a hotel on a remote Scottish island. As a number of guests arrive at the hotel for their walking holiday, a storm strikes and the guest house becomes cut off from the outside world. It becomes clear that some of the people have secrets to hide and that Anna is not as safe in her chosen retreat as she thought.
There were some good aspects to this, especially the sense of claustrophobia and some really tense moments. However, I thought that some of the plot twists were a bit unbelievable and some of the red herrings a bit obvious. It was engaging and kept me reading, but I don't think it is one that is very memorable. I didn't really like Anna that much, so it was quite difficult to be that invested in the outcome.
Overall, a lively and entertaining read, but not as twisty and clever as I had hoped.
