What to expect

'A unique and fascinating thriller which pulled me straight in and took me on an exciting adventure' Ruby Speechley

Six old friends … and a secret they’d all kill to protect.

When Pete and his friends set sail on a private yacht in the Balearics to celebrate Fergus’ upcoming wedding, they’re all looking forward to sun, sea and copious quantities of alcohol.

But there’s a reason they are still entwined in each other’s lives a decade after leaving university. A terrible event they’ve all been trying their hardest to forget.

They say you can’t outrun the past … And these six friends are about to find that out the hard way.

A gripping and addictive thriller perfect for fans of Frieda McFadden and Alex Michaelides

Praise for M.A. Hunter:

'A nightmare scenario with a killer on the loose on a stranded yacht, and dark secrets from the past slowly being revealed; I may never step onto a boat again after reading this, but I loved it!' Jackie Kabler

'... plenty of booze, drama, and secret-sharing... who doesn't love a whodunit on a boat? ... An edge of your seat, heart pounding thriller that leaves you wondering who's going to get off the yacht alive' Becca Day

'A thrill-a-minute page-turner full of suspense, twists and turns that kept me on tenterhooks until the nail-biting finale!' AA Chaudhuri

Mind-blowingly addictive!’ Samantha Lee Howe

'Wow! What an incredible start to this series. Kept me guessing throughout and I raced to the end – and what an ending!' Caz Finlay
