About this listen

Seven guests. Seven secrets. One killer. Do you dare to sleep?

All Anna wants is to be able to sleep. But crushing insomnia, terrifying night terrors and memories of that terrible night are making it impossible. If only she didn’t feel so guilty....

To escape her past, Anna takes a job at a hotel on the remote Scottish island of Rum, but when seven guests join her, what started as a retreat from the world turns into a deadly nightmare.

Each of the guests has a secret, but one of them is lying—about who they are and why they're on the island. There's a murderer staying in the Bay View hotel. And they've set their sights on Anna.

Seven strangers. Seven secrets. One deadly lie.

Someone’s going to sleep and never wake up....

Critic reviews

"Beware! Sleep does not do what it says on the tin: I was awake until the small hours under its dark and twisty spell." (Fiona Barton)

"Sleep kept me awake until the early hours...extremely creepy, atmospheric and twisty. I never guessed that ending!" (Claire Douglas)

"Another cracking psychological thriller from CL Taylor. Sleep will keep you up all night." (Mark Edwards)

A Convoluted Mess

This book is a total disaster.
It is utterly impossible to follow, there is virtually no character development at all.
This should have been creepy, fun, suspenseful.
Instead it is confusing, flat, lackluster, and boring.
I really wanted to like this book, I am exceedingly disappointed that I wasted a credit here.
The summary is completely misleading.
Don’t fall for it.
It is not a locked room, atmospheric, isolated island, character driven mystery at all as the summary would have you believe.
The narration is fine, no complaints there.

Upgraded who dunnit

Very differenf kind of whodunnit. Several different tropes coming together to make a quite satisfying murder mystery. A who dunnit taken to another level. The reader was quite good too.

Sleep

I really enjoyed this listen, a scary thought, as this could easily happen in real life, vengeance is a terrible thing. The narration was very good.
