Lie in the Tide by Holly Danvers is a thriller featuring a reunion of friends who are gathering to celebrate the 40th birthday of one of the group. Unfortunately, before the end of the weekend, one of them turns up dead, and everyone is a suspect because they all have something to hide.
I am going to keep this review rather short.
I didn’t care much for any of the characters none of them was particularly likeable, and yet I liked the book, mostly. The story was interesting, and kept my attention. While some of the decisions the characters made didn’t make sense to me, it did keep things interesting. My biggest problem came at the end of the book. I’ll be honest, I hated the ending, it made me feel cheated, like I had wasted my time with the rest of the story.
Lie in the Tide is a quick read and I think lots of people will enjoy it, what really spoiled it for me was the ending.
I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
Lie in the Tide will be available on June 3 2025.
