Title: I Did Warn Her
WHEN THERE'S BLOOD IN THE WATER, A FEEDING FRENZY IS SURE TO FOLLOW . . .
The Ophelia is your typical superyacht: luxurious, owned by a ruthless billionaire and staffed by crew who have just one job: keep the guests happy, whatever it takes. Sasha is the latest hire on a week-long Atlantic crossing, and she fits right in. In fact, she could be mistaken for any of the stewardesses: tall, blonde and model gorgeous.
But despite its sleek opulence, the Ophelia isn’t as heavenly as it seems. And when one of the stewardesses is found dead after a night of partying, all eyes turn to Sasha. But she’s not the only one with something to hide and below deck, nothing stays hidden for long.
Endlessly twisty and delightfully voyeuristic, I Did Warn Her is a whodunnit on the high seas, where the dark secrets of the ultra-wealthy have nowhere to hide.
Wow, this drew me in instantly and I was hooked throughout.
The short sharp chapters made it very easy to whizz through, and even having chapters focusing on all the various stewardesses, who all look identical as per the owner's preferences, it's made quite easy to tell whose chapter it is as they do have distinct personalities. We also get to focus on one of the guests on board and Jasmine is one of my favourite characters.
I also love Sasha the new junior stew, who is running away from life, and thought working on a superyacht would be just the ticket. Well until things start to go wrong, as no matter how big, sleek and shiny the Ophelia looks, internally well it's not great.
There are things going missing, including staff, and not just this charter season either.
I absolutely love a thriller based on a super yacht and this was no exception. I had no idea what was going to happen next, or who the killer was, but one this is for sure this is one super bitchy crew and no one seems to really get along with anyone else.
This is definitely where you end up keeping your enemies close, and where all the normal rules go out the window once you are out at sea.
With a final quarter that had me unable to look away, unable to do anything than keep reading as the drama ramps up. I was never sure how it would end and I am so glad I have now discovered this author. I was totally enthralled by every aspect of this book.
Thank you to Penguin and Netgalley for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
