The Rip

By: Holly Craig

Narrated by: Carly Foxx, Shalom Brune-Franklin

Luxury villas on hot white sand, views for miles over turquoise water.
Flawless hostess Penny gathers guests to an island for her husband’s birthday celebrations.
But she soon regrets inviting self-obsessed Eloise…

When a child vanishes on the night of the party, their perfect island weekend is ripped apart. Even paradise harbours murky secrets…
Has he been taken? Has he drowned?

In the panic to find any trace, Penny casts about for someone to blame—even if that person is her own daughter, Rosie. Even clear waters descend to pitch black…

But it’s not the first time Rosie’s been attacked by her mother. And it’s not the first time she’s turned to Eloise for support.

As the sun beats down and dark secrets rise to the surface, can they find the missing child before it’s too late—or will this sudden disappearance endanger them all? …and someone among them knows the whole shocking truth

An yet abysmal human condition…

This I could have done without. While entertainingly written, you get a really foul exposure to some of the major flaws the human condition right now and you’re left wondering what in the world the author is trying to get across. It’s also yet another example of how when you don’t have to worry about finances, the rules of law, society and just generally decency don’t really apply… which kinda just leaves the reader feeling like gum on the bottom of a shoe…

Unrealistic and Repetative

I had high hopes for this book based on reviews. The lead female characters are not realistic or interesting.

so thrilling

I love an actually happy realistic ending , was on the edge of my seat for the whole second half of the book. found that there are pieces to relate to each of the main women characters

It felt like a very mild book

Nothing suspenseful or intense happened. It was more just there playing in the background for me

Great mystery!!!

Good story line and characters. Keeps you excited about what’s next. Seems like a movie that I’ve seen.
