DS Elin Warner returns in the addictive new thriller from the Sunday Times and New York Times bestselling author of 2021' s top-selling debut, The Sanatorium. Most are here to recharge and refresh. But someone' s here for revenge . . . An eco-wellness retreat has opened on an island off the coast of Devon, promising rest and relaxation - but the island itself, known locally as Reaper' s Rock, has a dark past. Once the playground of a serial killer, it' s rumoured to be cursed. DS Elin Warner is called to the retreat when a young woman' s body is found on the rocks below the yoga pavilion, in what seems to be a tragic fall. But the victim wasn' t a guest - she wasn' t meant to be on the island at all. When a man drowns in a diving incident the following day, Elin starts to suspect that there' s nothing accidental about these deaths. But why would someone target the retreat - and who else is in danger? Elin must find the killer - before the island' s history starts to repeat itself . . .
