#TheRisingTide #AnnCleeves #BookSpinBingo

For fifty years a group of friends have been meeting for reunions on Holy Island, celebrating the school trip where they met, and the friend that they lost to the rising tide five years later. Now, when one of them is found hanged, Vera is called in.

EadieB Learning that the dead man had recently been fired after misconduct and allegations, Vera knows she must discover what the friends are hiding, and whether the events of many years before could have led to murder then, and now.
This is book number 10 in the Vera series. I have read all the others before so I am very familiar with the series. (edited) 2y

EadieB It is a series of characters that speak for the author and the plot is such that I have kept the pages turning until the very surprising ending. It is very hard to guess the killer as Ann Cleeves does not leave anything unturned until the very end. I look forward to the next book as I have enjoyed each one. If you love thrillers then you will love this one. I would like to thank NetGalley and Minotaur Books for a copy for an honest review. 2y

EadieB @Andrew65 Yes she does! 2y

Andrew65 @EadieB For most other authors I would get a bit frustrated with this, but she definitely makes it work. (edited) 2y

EadieB @Andrew65 You can‘t try to figure it out so you just go with until the end! 2y

Andrew65 @EadieB Exactly that! She does write great books and stories. 2y

EadieB @Andrew65 Yes she does! 2y

TheAromaofBooks I read a few of Cleeves's books earlier this year and really enjoyed them. I need to pick some back up!! 2y

EadieB This clever and unique book starts out fast-paced and the reader is forced to keep turning pages in order to find out some answers. In the middle, the book slows down and gets a bit repetitive. Towards the end there are heart-pounding twists and turns culminating into an exciting surprise ending. 2y

Bookwormjillk That cover looks tense 2y

EadieB I liked Sam Lloyd's writing and will be looking forward to reading his next book. If you enjoy mystery/thrillers, then you will enjoy this book. I would like to thank NetGalley and Penzler Publishers for an e-book for an honest review. (edited) 2y
