An exclusive invitation to a luxurious island resort should be the holiday of a lifetime for Emma. But beneath the lavish settings and indulgent amenities, lies a sinister plot waiting to be uncovered.
Emma's boss, Rebecca, gifted her the ticket to Hotel Horizen's grand opening, but Emma has her own agenda - to write a tell-all article about the rich and famous guests. Little did she know, this weekend would become a nightmare she never could have imagined.
As she delves deeper into the secrets of the elite, Emma realises she may have bitten off more than she can chew. Will she uncover the truth and make her mark as a journalist, or will she become the next victim in this twisted game of power and deception?
If you enjoyed "The Guest List" by Lucy Foley or “One by One” by Ruth Ware, you won't want to miss this gripping thriller.
SM Thomas draws the reader into Long Weekend from the very start as it is clear from the first page that something terrible has happened. Now that's what I call a hook! So put on your virtual running shoes when you pick up Long Weekend as you're sure to race your way through this book like I did.
Journalist Emma is clearly the odd one out on the guest list for the opening of Hotel Horizen as all of the other guests are rich and famous. They are so self-centred that they don't seem that bothered about who Emma is and why she's on the plane with them. The guests had to hand over their mobile phones on arrival but Emma has a hidden camera but it becomes increasingly clear that her photos might never make it off the island...and nor might she.
Oh the suspense is palpable and I couldn't turn the pages fast enough whilst sitting on the edge of my seat and biting my nails. I had no idea how the story was going to play out and I loved every minute of it.
Gripping, addictive and thrilling, Long Weekend is filled with secrets and suspense. It would make a fantastic holiday read as you're lying by the pool but beware of any rustling in the bushes. Eeeek!
Many thanks to the author for sending me a digital ARC to read and review; this is my honest and unbiased opinion.
