Destination Thriller..
An influencer competition for a week long stay in a luxury hideaway retreat in Costa Rica brings five winners to the rain forests of Costa Rica with promises that they will leave transformed. On arrival their host is nowhere to be seen - befuddled but not deterred the group settle in but this beginning is to be the least of their worries as time goes on for biting is quite as it seems. Suspenseful and immersive with a propulsive plot and a constant underlying vein of menace - this destination thriller is as compelling as it is a stark commentary of influencer culture - with a cast of well drawn and credible characters and a well imagined, lush setting.

I loved this read. It is pulsatingly good.
5 strangers are winners of a competiton and head to a balmy hideaway for rest and relaxation.......
Of course it isn;t as it first seems and soon we realise that they are there for a different reason..
No spoilers from me but this is a great read and a perfect holiday novel.
