About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
Eight contestants. One killer. Can you find the traitor?
Everything is a clue.
Bonnie arrives on a remote sea fort off the coast of England to take part in a mysterious reality TV show. Competing against seven strangers, she must solve a series of puzzles to win the prize money, but this is no game - and the consequences of failure are deadly.
No one leaves.
Under scrutiny from the watching public, the contestants quickly turn on one another. Who will sacrifice the most for wealth and fame? And why can't Bonnie shake the creeping sense that they are not alone?
The only way out is to win.
When the first contestant is found dead, Bonnie begins to understand the dark truth at the heart of this twisted competition: there's a killer inside the fort, and anyone could be next. If Bonnie wants to escape, she needs to win...
Are you ready to play?

Excellent debut
I seem to have listened to loads of books based on reality tv series recently but this is definitely one of the best. Eight strangers arrive at a remote sea fort off the English coast and have to play a series of puzzles. What starts as fun soon becomes very dark indeed. The show is a little like The Crystal Maze but with definite Saw vibes! It is fast paced and very suspenseful. I did try to solve the puzzles myself but I was hopeless. The characters were all interesting and I was fascinated by the dynamics of the group, but the only ones I actually liked were Bonnie and Jacko and I was really rooting for them both. The story is full of twists and turns and kept me guessing all the way through. And the ending makes me wonder if there might be a sequel?
Great narration by Catherine Bailey.

The twist and the accents
Bravo! The characters come to lofe with this narrater and the plot keeps you hanging just that little longer than you expected. I was suprised to see another hour to go at one point. Well worth a listen :-)
