About this listen
They found paradise.... What would they do to keep it?
In the tradition of Alex Garland's The Beach, a spine-tingling adventure novel about a group of friends whose journey around the world on a yacht turns from a trip to paradise into a chilling nightmare when one of them disappears at sea. Lana and her best friend, Kitty, leave home looking for freedom - and that's exactly what they find when they are invited onto The Blue, a 50-foot yacht making its way from the Philippines to New Zealand. Manned by a young crew of wanderers, The Blue is exactly the escape they are looking for, and the two quickly fall under its spell, spending their days exploring remote islands and their rum-filled nights relaxing on deck beneath the stars. Yet paradise found can just as quickly become lost. Lana and Kitty begin to discover that they aren't the only ones with secrets they'd rather run from than reveal. And when one of their new friends disappears overboard after an argument with the other crew members, the dark secrets that brought each of them aboard start to unravel. Haunting and infused with spectacular detail, the latest novel by Lucy Clarke - whose writing has been hailed as "breathtaking" (Kirkus Reviews) and "exciting and mysterious" (Library Journal) - is a pause-resisting thriller filled with adventure, exotic locales, and high stakes.

UrbanMyth: It was lauded as an alternative to the performative, show-your-best-self platforms—an anonymous discussion board grouped by zip code. The residents of Manhattan’s exclusive Upper East Side disclosed it all, things they would never share with their friends or their spouses: secret bank accounts, steamy affairs, tidbits of juicy gossip. So when a “hacktivist” group breaks into the forum and exposes the real identity of each poster, the repercussions echo down Park Avenue with a force that none could have anticipated.

Story

She’s spent a decade treating California’s most depraved predators and unlocking their motives - predators much like the notorious Bloody Heart serial killer, whose latest teenage victim escaped and then identified local high school teacher Randall Thompson as his captor. The case against Thompson as the Bloody Heart Killer is damning - and closed, as far as Gwen and the media are concerned. If not for one new development.

Boring….

I loved this book, this is my second book by her and I’m still very impressed. I think she will be the next author that I read all of her books of I really like how she does a slight focus on mental health aspects. I think she does a lot of clever, speaking analogy’s. If you will I liked the story of this book. I thought it was really interesting. I liked that every single person had a secret, and you know everybody was trying to figure out what their secret was, and how basically in the end everything kinda came to fruition and you were able to tell what really happened. I liked the fact that they were brothers. I think that also added a little bit of more dimension to the book what I didn’t like, however was Heinrich and the fact that he let that man basically drowned, even though Joseph did realistically kill himself, however the fact that Heinrich had the the option to save him and chose not to really bewildered me. I didn’t see that aspect of the book coming so that was a nice little twist at the end but also Heinrich never got the hundred thousand dollars at the end because they had to abandon ship. but also like the sound of this book in the way of like they lived sounds really interesting to me and I could definitely see this actually happening in a way.

Very engaging plot

Lushly evocative of the place, we are drawn into their world, with all its beauty and wonder and freedom. But this is the world still inhabited by humans – with all their baggage and subject to all their frailties. And so the tensions build.
In a narrative which alternates between present and past, we know very well from the beginning that something has gone very wrong. What that is, how that has happened and why, are the substance of this novel. Very well done, building tension, questions and then more questions, as the story proceeds. There are no clear heroes, there are no clear villains. Just life and just like in real life. Well done narration. Recommended!

It is such a unique and well thought out story filled with fully realized characters.
It’s wonderfully descriptive, haunting, a true mystery, and narrated exceptionally well.
I highly recommend this one.
Just like “One of the Girls” it will surprise you with its poignancy and depth.
A truly fantastic book.
