What to expect
Their dream holiday is about to turn into a nightmare . . .
When upscale travel agent Allegra is offered a complimentary stay for her extended family at a new, high-end woodland retreat, she's delighted to discover it has everything you could ask for: luxury tree house accommodation, activities for the kids, spa treatments, fine dining—what could be more relaxing?
But relationships within the group are fraught, and an impromptu family celebration seems only to worsen matters. Frustrated with her family, and taken for granted by her husband for years, Allegra forms an unexpected bond with someone new, and things begin to go wrong . . .
Resentments grow, and tensions rise; it seems the family's problems might run deeper than anyone suspected. When the warning signs become dangerous, the family realizes they haven't been asking the right questions: how did they really come to be here? And which of them won't be going home?
A tense holiday thriller, The Family Break is perfect for fans of T. M. Logan.
