Wow, wow and Wow. A fantastic storyline where everyone was suspicious, once I started reading I didn't want to stop.
I think this has to be my favourite book by kerri so far.

Just when I thought every little breath was my favorite Keri read this book comes along. Her books are seriously so addictive and right when i think I've figured things out I'm proven otherwise. As with all good thrillers, there was a big false lead that I fell right into and I found myself stunned by the final reveal. This book also does a really special job of showing character growth for Lana. Who she was as a girl, who she was as a haunted woman returning to Mead House, and who she leaves as are entirely different entities and I was proud of her healing.

This book started off with a bang and just kept going all the way through. It was so twisty and full of red herrings, I just loved it as I do all of Kerr’s books that I’ve read so far. Five stars isn’t enough for this book. My thanks to Netgalley and the publishers for giving me the opportunity to read this book in return for an honest review.

I have always found myself reading into the early morning hours when I pick up a book by Keri Beevis and The Summer House was no exception.
A grandmother has died and her grandchildren, Lana and Ollie return to the town to clean out the grandmothers house and prepare it to be sold. Years prior the Summer House had been the sight of a murder and memories are never more than a thought away.
A diary found and secrets revealed keep this book moving at a swift pace. Keri Beevis has the ability to make the reader believe they have it all figured out, only to discover they don't.
Recommended to those who like twisty mysteries,
Thank you NetGalley and Boldwood Books for the advanced digital copy of this book in exchange for my review considerations. All opinions are my own.

@keri.beevishas a new psychological thriller publishing in a couple weeks and I highly recommend reading it! It is filled with things I love in a thriller: English gardens, small town in the English countryside, secrets, lies, multiple POVs, dual timelines, and of course, murder. The author keeps you guessing and the story is filled with shocking twists.

Thank you to Boldwood Books and @netgalley for allowing me to read this book ahead of publication in exchange for my honest review.

I have read and enjoyed several books by this author, The Summer House is a great addition to this list. This is a dark and intense tale and I quickly found myself immersed in the drama. The cast of characters are well rounded and believable (if not all likeable!), with the relationship between them being seamlessly written. This book contains many twists and turns, which were all brilliantly crafted.

All in all, this is a gripping psychological thriller that keeps the pages turning.

17 years after the brutal murder of Camille, beloved older sister of twins Ollie and Lana, Grandma Kitty passed away . As executors of Kitty’s will they must empty the home where the murder took place, where they used to be carefree teenagers until that fateful night. What Lana didn’t expect to find was an old journal containing Camille’s most private thoughts and secrets. She helped put away her boyfriends brother that she saw that night with Camille, but was she wrong? Did she really send an innocent man to prison for 17 years?

Overall, this was a remarkable thriller. I had a little trouble getting into it but once I did I couldn’t put it down and binge read the rest of it! For me, I enjoyed that I didn’t favor the killer already, but didn’t fully suspect them as the murderer. Then -boom- plot twist and it clicks why I didn’t like them😂 The plot twist definitely made me feel like I wasn’t going crazy. And as a romantic, I loved the little bit of romance that was put into the story as well!

I really loved how real the characters felt. The story felt realistic in how everyone responded to the circumstances and you could feel the heartbreak, anger, shock, etc. as it happened. Overall, I felt the story moved at good pace for the events to have made sense! While I would have loved to have seen the meet up between Sebastian, Xavier, their mom and Lana. That was something I was very curious of throughout the whole story.

Thank you Keri Beevis, Boldwood Books, and netgalley for a copy of The Summer House for a review💗

What's not to like about this book! Murder, mayhem, love, hate, sex and lots more going on ! I was hooked from the first chapter and although I fathomed a tiny part out, I was carried along with the rest of the dead ends and sleight of hand which Ms Beevis is so good at in her writing. Plenty going on in the story to keep you page turning right to the very end! I certainly recommend this book.

Thanks to Netgalley for the ARC to review.

Holy moly guacamole.

I need to start with this as The Summer House is everything that I expected and so much more.
Lana and her twin brother Ollie have to return to their grandmother's Kitty's house after her sudden death. But it is with mixed feelings.
Their oldet sister Camille was murdered in the summer house and it was Lana that identified her killer. And Ollie that discovered his sister's body.
Seventeen years later the feelings are still hard to handle.
This has both sweet and bitter memories for them both as it was their teenage best friend Xaz and Lana's boyfriend at the time that his brother Sebastian that Lana saw that night who was dating Camille at the time and he was arrested and sentenced for Camille's murder.

But coming home to Mead House has stirred something amongst people in the local community.
Who has something to hide?
And what would they do to protect their own secrets?
An absolutely mindblowing intense psychological thriller

This was my first book by Keri Beevis and it will definitely not be my last!

Wow! What a gripping, mind-twisting thriller that kept me guessing until the end.
The dual timeline and change in POVs was so well done. I absolutely loved the characters but I trusted no one and suspected everyone! Lana and Xav were my favorites and made the story so enjoyable for me. The author made sure every character had a backstory and a voice and that made me love or hate every single one of them.

Overall, this was a fast paced thriller that kept me in suspense. I could not put this book down but when I had to, I found myself thinking about it constantly. That’s when I knew this was definitely going to be a 5 star for me!

Thank you NetGalley and Boldwood books for allowing me to read the eARC!

A thrilling book that keeps you turning the pages until the shocking ending. Full of twists and turns and shocks. Brilliant!’ I rate this book four out of five stars.

New to me author and I loved this book! I can’t wait to read more by them! Had me not wanting to set it down and then have it end!

Thank you NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review this book. It's part serial killer part love story with some revenge and redemption thrown into the mix. There was a killer, but the story kept pointing you in one direction and then when you sat back knowing who did it the story twisted to a different person. There were several villains in the book and all of them played a part in the mystery, but only one was psychotic. There was a big twist when the real killer was revealed. There is an old hidden journal that holds the key to a 17-year-old murder and what had happened in the summer house in very graphic detail. The journal also makes one person doubt their memories of the night the death occurred which leads to redemption for the person imprisoned for 17 years. The book was ok but not one I would have stayed up until the wee hours to continue reading.

Another outstanding book by this author. Lana Hamilton temporarily moves back to her childhood home following the death of her Grandmother Kitty so as to clear it out prior to selling it. The house holds bad memories for her as her sister was also murdered there some years previously. Lana's evidence was instrumental in the conviction of the murderer which still upsets some of the locals. During her stay various things happen which cast doubt over the conviction. Some people are anxious about the new evidence and will go to any measures to ensure they don't come to light.

This is a fast paced thriller that keeps you in suspense throughout with many twists and turns. The characters are believable although in some cases not very likeable. It is a very well constructed story that flows easily. I found it very hard to put it down as there was so much happening in it.

A must read and a worthy 5 stars

This book was incredibly fast paced. I was hooked from the beginning and I read it in between working in one day! The story and the characters were so well developed. I was invested. The ending was definitely a twist I didn’t see coming. I would definitely recommend this to my friends and followers!!

Another brilliant book from Keri Beevis.
Lana heads back to Norfolk to sort out her grandmother’s house following her death.
It’s hard for her being back as her sister died in the summer house when she was a teenager.
Lana’s twin brother Ollie also comes back to the house to help and it’s clear the twins are not welcome back here.
Lana was very close to Xav when they were younger but after his brother was imprisoned for her sister’s death, the relationship crumbled.
Lana bumps into Xav when she first gets back and it’s clear he’s not comfortable around her. But when someone tries to run her over, he’s there to help her.
It’s clear someone isn’t happy about Lana and Ollie being back and things soon start to escalate.
This is a gripping psychological thriller that will definitely keep you guessing.
Thanks to Boldwood Books and NetGalley for the opportunity to read this book.

✨Book Review✨

The Summer House, Kerri Beevis.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Wow. I devoured this book. The plot, the characters, the writing - everything was just exactly what I needed.

After Lana’s grandmother passed away, she returns back to her childhood home ready to clear all of her things and put the house back on the market. This also includes clearing away her sister’s belongings (who has been dead for 17 years) as well as clearing out the summer house where she was murdered. Luckily, her murderer is behind bars and, despite the run-ins with his family, Lana does not have to face that part of her past. That is until she finds her sister’s hidden journal and secrets about her past are exposed. Secrets that suggest the man in prison was not her sister’s killer.

The suspense in this story was thick from the start. The change in POVs was utterly fantastic - and very difficult to do in third person! I honestly had no idea about anything and was constantly guessing throughout. I didn’t know who to trust, who to hate, who to adore and it was wonderful!

I absolutely loved the characters. Xav honestly had my heart in this. I loved him. The introduction to subplots towards the middle (George’s in particular) was fantastically done and I was desperate to read on. The author ensured every character had a backstory and voice in this and this made me love (or hate) every single one!

Overall, this fast-paced thriller was utterly powerful and left me guessing throughout. I could not put this down and, when I had to, I could not stop thinking about it! That’s when you know it’s a 5 star read!

Thank you to NetGalley and Boldwood Books for the ARC of this in exchange for an honest review!

Thanks to netgalley and boldwood books for letting me review an early copy of this book This is the second book i have read by this author, it drew me into the story right from the start.
Camille was murdered one summer in the summer house, the person who did it was convicted on evidence given by camilles sister lana, did she make a mistake,?
When kitty their loving grandma dies twins ollie and lana are left the estate..
Is the right man behind bars? There are lots of twists in this story.. who really killed camille, lana and ollie are going to find out. Fantastic read..........

A bit of a slow burner for me but once it got going i was kept on my toe's trying to keep up.
Plenty of characters that left me confused, with twists and turns galore.
I love Keri Beevis but i was a little disappointed by some unanswered questions.
Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for my advanced copy.
A solid 4 stars from me.

Mead House, the summer house for the Hamilton family, has been holding secrets for seventeen years. Secrets of Camille's death.

This was thrilling and twisty. So many shocking secrets. I did feel a lot was left unsolved, unanswered in the end, but otherwise a darn good mysterious thriller.
