*Not the tagged book* I thoroughly enjoyed this novella, The House on the Water by Margot Hunt. She skillfully crafted her own unique twist into a classic locked-in murder mystery. Surprisingly, I managed to decipher the motive behind the murder and identify the murderer even before the reveal. This didn‘t diminish my appreciation for the captivating narrative.

I usually like Margot Hunt's books, but “The Guests“ had some issues that left me feeling underwhelmed. The characters, the plot, and the many twists and turns all failed to inspire me. Only two elements stood out and they were the full-cast narration and the setting of a category 5 hurricane.

I was seeking out more Margot Hunt after reading the Guests & found this free on audible. It was fine, not my favorite. It was pretty short so there wasn‘t a lot of time to be too twisty or juicy, but no major complaints
pickAt first I thought this was too straightforward -no buildup to the intentions of The Guests. But as it went on it got more complex. There are POVs for most of the family &guests, the author did a great job of keeping each voice unique.
A quick read too.
A cat 5 hurricane hits Florida and Marlowe and Lee decide to let three strangers who are caught out in the storm seek refuge at their house.
