THE RETREAT BY SARAH PEARSE – BOOK REVIEW

PUBLISHED ON 21st JULY 2022 BY TRANSWORLD DIGITAL

A woman’s body has been found at the bottom of the cliff beneath the yoga pavilion.

We believe her death was a tragic accident, though DS Elin Warner has arrived on the island to investigate.

A storm has been forecast, but do not panic. Stick together and please ignore any rumours you might have heard about the island and its history.

Sarah Pearse grew up in Devon, UK, and studied English literature and creative writing at the University of Warwick before completing a postgraduate diploma in broadcast journalism. She lived in Switzerland for several years before returning to the UK. The Sanatorium, her debut, was an instant New York Times and Sunday Times (London) bestseller and was selected as a Reese’s Book Club Pick. The Retreat is her second novel.

I have read both of these books and have to say they get better and better so looking forward to the next one. The Retreat surprised me as it made you keep changing your mind about who was doing the murders and being honest I did not figure it out until the end. Nothing is as it seems with hidden agendas and not everybody telling the truth. Delightful read if you like something that keeps you guessing.
