Synopsis (AmazonAU)
Paradise comes at a price . . .
The stunning mountain views. The beautiful shore of Lake Geneva. The terrified woman held in the suite belonging to the hotel’s millionaire owner.
Lo Blacklock’s all-expenses paid trip to a luxury Swiss chateau should have been the ideal return to work. But as her past catches up with her, the millionaire’s mistress demanding that Lo help her escape, and a body turning up in the room next door, forces Lo to ask how far would she go to help someone she’s not even sure she can trust…
My Take
This story is the sequel to 4.4, THE WOMAN IN CABIN 10 which was published nearly 10 years ago. In fact 10 years has elapsed in "real time" since the events that took place in that story.
The offer of an all-expenses-paid jaunt to Switzerland has come at just the right time for Laura Blacklock who is more than ready to re-start her career as a travel journalist. In the last ten years she has married, written a book about what happened on the Aurora ten years ago, had two children, and become an American citizen living in New York.
Laura is astounded to find that 3 other people from the Aurora incident have also been invited to the conference in Geneva, which is the launch of a new style of tourism by a very wealthy family firm. And then she discovers that the person behind the invitation is none other than Carrie from the Aurora ten years before. Laura discovers that Carrie has plans of her own.
There is an interesting section in the author's notes at the end of the book about writing a sequel to the earlier book.
It is nearly 10 years since I have read THE WOMAN IN CABIN 10, and my memories of what happened were a bit fragmentary, always a bit of a problem in reading a sequel.
My rating: 4.6
